I love this space because, honestly, I had never done anything related to real estate before. I was completely ignorant to all of it. All I knew was, “I bought my house, I pay my mortgage every month, and that’s that.” 😂 Which is probably why I’m currently in a house I most definitely overpaid for and still owe around $250K on. Even though I’ve learned paying it off early may not be the smartest financial move, I’ve still kind of fallen in love with the idea of owning it free and clear. But anyway, once I got into real estate, I started learning about curative title, probate, heirship, tax delinquent properties, and messy title situations and I got hooked. So far I’ve done a handful of deals and still have a couple I’m working on. One thing I’ve noticed is that the spreads on these messy/title-heavy deals can be way bigger than what I usually hear about in regular wholesale or novation deals. I’m hungry now though, and I’m trying to learn more about PPL and paid lead systems because I currently spend a ton of time hunting my own leads. My biggest source has been delinquent tax lists, then scraping those for deceased owners. It’s honestly crazy how many people pass away without wills. Then the hunt begins — finding heirs, some of whom don’t even know they have an interest in a property at all. It’s a wild world, but I love learning it. I’m curious about paid leads though. Are they usually exclusive, or are they sold to a bunch of different investors at the same time? We’re also in a crazy age of AI right now, and I’m trying to figure out how to use it as much as possible in this field. So far, using Claude, I built out a website for my business: Pages of Purpose LLC | Probate, Heirship & Title Specialists | Maryland https://pagesofpurposellc.com I haven’t paid for ads yet because I’m honestly apprehensive. This space is so competitive. When you Google something like “I want to sell my house,” it feels like 50 ads pop up from giant companies. How does the smaller guy eat with all these whales in the water?

Thanks to Rich and his team for setting the standards for novation's and helping me out when I needed help.

Hey everyone I’m based in Miami and just getting started in wholesaling. I come from a mortgage background, so I understand the finance side, but I’m new to the acquisition side. Right now I’m running PPC ads for motivated sellers and focusing on JV’ing deals while I build experience and improve my process. I ran into a situation today I’d like some input on: I was on the phone with a seller using Rich’s script, and he kept saying something like “you can always come see the house in person.” He repeated it a few times and it felt like he was deflecting instead of answering questions. I didn’t want to lose control of the conversation, but I also didn’t want to come off too pushy. For those with more experience:How do you handle sellers who keep redirecting to “just come see it” instead of engaging on the phone? Do you push to stay on the phone and qualify first, agree and set the appointment, or is there a way you reframe it to keep control of the conversation? Appreciate any insight trying to improve fast and build the right habits early.

If you’re here to just “learn” and watch videos…this isn’t for you. This only works if you take action. I’m doing a live training tomorrow (Tuesday) where I’m breaking down: - What wholesale real estate actually is (not the guru version) - What you really need to get your first deal done - The fastest path to getting paid (even if you don’t have leads) - What’s a waste of time vs what actually works 📅 Tuesday⏰ 5PM Arizona Time / 8PM Eastern (Link will be posted here before we go live) Most people overcomplicate this business. You don’t need: - 10 tools - a big budget - or months of “learning” You need: - the right conversations - the right structure - and reps Inside this group, you’re going to have the opportunity to: - Learn how to actually talk to sellers - Get access to real opportunities - And potentially get your first deal done ⚠️ But understand this now: - Nothing is handed to you - No one is doing the work for you - And not everyone will make it If you’re serious… Drop a comment below: 👉 “READY” And I’ll know who’s actually here to work. This is your shot to get in early. Don’t waste it.
