Hello Joe,
Great podcast with Jake. I really enjoyed it. Wish I would have discovered your podcasts before the San Diego Training. I would have attended. My reason for writing is your comments at the beginning of the podcast with Jake, you said you were working on a “start from scratch” wholesale business in a tough market. I think that is a great idea. I am just beginning to explore real estate and looking at the different options available. There are a lot! Everyone is an expert and knows how you can make tons of money really quick with very little effort (yeah right). I own a contracting business and am looking to make a change into real estate. I like your training on wholesaling lease options, but what I really like is that you have a system and tell it like it is, YOU HAVE TO MARKET and keep it up. It is a numbers game depending on longevity, frequency and diligence.I also like the fact that you can wholesale lease options in any city and have it fully automated. Which leads me to my question. Why don’t your students spend time researching which markets are the best for wholesaling lease options and concentrate there marketing in those areas? I live in Southern California (Orange County)and the market is tough here, but I believe you are right, it can be done and the profits should be higher due to the pricing of homes. Please keep me in mind when you launch your training, I will be first in line. Also if you think of a way that you could include mentoring a student into your start from scratch program, I would love the training and would be more than happy to do the footwork and share in any deals that came about.
