Like if you want to be in first position and find deals, and when you start a wholesaling business, that’s what it does. It gets you unlimited access to heavily discounted off market properties and motivated sellers. If I could do it all over again, that’s where I messed up. Starting a wholesaling business is the foundation. If you ain’t got that piece in, if you don’t know how to find deals, you’re dead in the water as a real estate investor.” – Chris Rood “Every market reacts to different marketing channels. You got to split the test, measure, adapt and change to the different markets that you’re in.” – Chris Rood Connect With Chris Rood: ChrisRood.com Facebook Instagram LinkedIn Connect with Dave Dubeau: Property Profits Podcast www.davedubeau.com www.investorattractiondemo.com Facebook LinkedIn Enjoyed the Podcast?
