Here is our formula for a  successful wholesale real estate business.<\/p>\n<p>Q-L + Q-H + R-S + B-L + R = Big  Dollars.\u00a0\u00a0 What does this mean? Let us tell you.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Q-L stands for quality  leads. \u00a0In order to be successful as a wholesaler you need to find sources of  leads that are quality houses. \u00a0Quality leads that is; that means that there  motivated sellers. \u00a0You want to have a seller that&#8217;s not trying, that doesn&#8217;t  necessarily need to sell. \u00a0You don&#8217;t want that seller that&#8217;s just kind of  testing the water to see, &#8220;Oh maybe I can see what I can get.&#8221; \u00a0Or, you know,  you need the motivated sellers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A lot of real estate investors fail  because they don&#8217;t deal with enough motivated sellers and that&#8217;s what we mean by  quality leads. \u00a0A quality lead really equals a motivated seller such as a bank  or someone in pre-foreclosure or a HUD property or an old landlord that&#8217;s burned  out. \u00a0You want to have those quality leads coming at you every day, every week  because those are the deals that are going to make you the most money.  \u00a0Motivation = Money.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Q-H, which is quality houses It is important to have  quality leads from motivated sellers but you don&#8217;t want to have junk. \u00a0You don&#8217;t  want to have houses that are not going to be marketable to your back end buyers.  \u00a0You&#8217;re going to want to houses that are your bread and butter type houses. \u00a0You  want to avoid houses that are slanted to the left or houses that are what&#8217;s  known as functionally obsolete.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So you don&#8217;t want houses like that or  houses that are too small. \u00a0You want bread and butter houses. Houses that you  are proud to represent. This is an area where some wholesalers make a mistake  thinking that just because they found a deal where the numbers may work that  they automatically have a good house. \u00a0A bad house is not going to sell because  your investors aren&#8217;t going to want to junk.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And remember when we say  \u00a0mean these houses are going to need to some type of work. \u00a0They&#8217;re going to  need some degree of fix-up whether it&#8217;s minor &#8211; paint and carpet, or whether  it&#8217;s a full blown rehab where the roof and air conditioning system and floor  boards are messed up.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Most of the houses you&#8217;re going to wholesale are  going to be your fixer uppers or your handyman specials. \u00a0There not going to be  your pristine houses in great condition and that&#8217;s because there&#8217;s a lot of  equity in the houses that need fix up. As a result of this rehab, your end  buyer&#8217;s going to be able to create that equity as they fix the house up.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">S= System. \u00a0You need a repeatable system. \u00a0You need something that you  can do day in and day out. \u00a0That&#8217;s going to be your success. \u00a0You want to have a  steady stream of customers coming in and out and they can only do that if their  systems internally can be repeated. \u00a0Treat your wholesaling business like  Mcdonalds. You as a wholesaler want to \u00a0be able to set yourself up where you can  put your business on auto pilot and systemize it where your doing the same thing  \u00a0over and over again until where it becomes really on auto pilot.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So  it&#8217;s very important to be successful and to be in a business where you can make  $10,000 dollars from one deal every 30 days and then build this into a six  figure or even a seven figure business. \u00a0You need that repeatable system.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And then B-L. \u00a0B-L is your buyer&#8217;s list. \u00a0Your buyer&#8217;s list is your  gold. \u00a0It allows you to be able to find a, you know, when your out there looking  for your houses you can say, &#8220;Oh yeah I know that John Smith would like this  house.&#8221; \u00a0Or, &#8220;I know that Sally would like this house.&#8221; \u00a0When you are out  looking for houses you&#8217;ve already have a-determined what your buyer&#8217;s want  because your tuned into them and developed that list.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Your goal should  be to have a hungry list of buyers waiting for your next deal. Having this  allows you to be able to make offers with confidence knowing that you&#8217;re going  to have a buyer to wholesale to right away. One of the main reasons for our  success has been our ability to develop our buyers list because part of our  success is really attributed to knowing what our customers want and having the  relationship with \u00a0them. And that&#8217;s the one thing that you as a wholesaler  really, really need to focus on is that list of buyers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">R is very  critical as well,\u00a0 R = your resources. \u00a0These are your people on your team from the  closing your closing attorney, your real estate agents, your contractors, etc.  that you can refer out to your buyers.. \u00a0You cannot be successful in this  business or any business at all without teammates, without having people around  you that compliment you. These people can also be a part of your internal team  i.e. an assistant or a birddog \u00a0that&#8217;s out there looking for deals for you.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A big part of our success is really attributed a lot to our people  internally and then our real estate. \u00a0If we couldn&#8217;t do the amount of volume of  business that we do without our real estate agents or without our closing  attorneys being able to get deals done quickly when we need them to. \u00a0So it&#8217;s  really key to have the right resources in place, have the right team.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.duncanwierman.com\/content\/selling-fast\/how-to-buy-and-sell-houses-without-leaving-your-house\/\" target=\"_self\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.duncanwierman.com\/content\/selling-fast\/how-to-buy-and-sell-houses-without-leaving-your-house\/\" target=\"_self\">GO TO NEXT CHAPTER HERE<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wholesaling can be broken down into a simple formula.
