If you've ever had a seller laugh at your offer or had a buyer laugh you off the phone because you brought him a deal that he thought was trash, that's not your fault. That was the fault of the traditional wholesaling model that you were taught to follow. Every burned-out wholesaler has this moment. You get the courage to make the offer, and the seller either yells, laughs at your offer, or tells you that you're wasting your time. Or worse, you bring a deal to a buyer and they laugh you off of the phone and treat you like you're a noob and you have no idea what you're doing in real estate. You know what's crazy? People actually think that's normal. They think that humiliation is a part of this business, but it's not. It's a sign that you were taught the most ridiculous way to wholesale possible. Traditional wholesaling has people doing deals unethically and uneffectively. They teach you to lie, pretend that you're the buyer, and then use a formula that is more made up than Monopoly money, and then pray that someone is willing to buy your contract. That whole approach creates uncertainty and humiliation because everything that you're doing is based on guessing. We don't guess. We flipped a property for $86,000 and the seller knew what was going on the whole entire time. It took 2 conversations with the seller. Zero lying, zero stress, zero fear. How? Because we use the pre-flip method, which allows us to flip a house before we even make an offer. I'm teaching the exact strategy in a free masterclass. If you're tired of being hesitant with making offers, talking to sellers and feeling a little slimy about what you're doing, maybe a little embarrassed, a little humiliated, maybe a little stressed or confused, hit the link below and register for the masterclass. I'm telling you, you're not the problem. It's the model you've been following. So let's fix it.
