The courses are pitched in such a way that people beleive it will be easier than it is. I'm in the same boat as Scott above. Trying to make the wholesaling gig work but running into a lot of problems. P.S. I would be interrested in an introduction to the folks you mentioned. Hi Megan

I think the folks who are successful in this real estate market are the ones who have deep pockets and a long established network. They have systems in place and connections in banks, with REO asset managers, with the REO real estate agents doing the listing and so they have the market tied up. Rather than spinning your wheels, partner with one of these groups--if they are doing joint ventures. I know some folks like this if you'd like an introduction. Thank for responding.

I am so guilty of this and even now, I have been trying to make the wholesaling tactics work and I am so frustrated. I read the books from the little guy on TV (Dean), and I liked the books. He has great ideas, and tells it well. These tactics make sense to me. I have been finding vacant homes in some great areas in Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Encino, etc... I found RE Agents who are willing to make low offers, and I have been going at it for three months with nothing to show. Curious what is working... if anything... can you (or anyone) tell me why everyone seems to think and say that this really is perhaps the best time for investors in the entire history of the planet, and yet beyond the testimonials of the gurus students and others selling the lessons... I am not finding anyone who is making it work! Even the members at the real estate investors clubs are not finding much to talk about. Are keeping secrets or something. Is this a closed Good\'Ol Boy thing? I don\'t need a get rich quick program to be happy. I just want a program that I can follow to pay my bills as I learn the ropes. I\'ll gladly do my time. So I ask again, what is working for those of us who want to be successful investors and learn how to create some wealth in a reasonable time frame as others have with the ultimate wealth creation game ever - Real Estate? If we keep making wholesale offers targeted to the real \"Don\'t Wanter\'s\", the ones who may lose their house and credit if they don\'t let it go very soon should\'nt we find a few deals? Just wondering what (if anything) I am missing? Stay Creative, ST Hey Megan,

Great post. I am so guilty of this and even now, I have been trying to make the wholesaling tactics work and I am so frustrated.

I read the books from the little guy on TV (Dean), and I liked the books. He has great ideas, and tells it well. These tactics make sense to me. I have been finding vacant homes in some great areas in Woodland Hills, Tarzana, Encino, etc… I found RE Agents who are willing to make low offers, and I have been going at it for three months with nothing to show.

Curious what is working… if anything… can you (or anyone) tell me why everyone seems to think and say that this really is perhaps the best time for investors in the entire history of the planet, and yet beyond the testimonials of the gurus students and others selling the lessons… I am not finding anyone who is making it work!

I don\’t need a get rich quick program to be happy. I just want a program that I can follow to pay my bills as I learn the ropes.

I\’ll gladly do my time. So I ask again, what is working for those of us who want to be successful investors and learn how to create some wealth in a reasonable time frame as others have with the ultimate wealth creation game ever – Real Estate?

If we keep making wholesale offers targeted to the real \"Don\’t Wanter\’s\", the ones who may lose their house and credit if they don\’t let it go very soon should\’nt we find a few deals?

Just wondering what (if anything) I am missing?

Stay Creative,
