Description
The words “ethical” and “wholesaling” are rarely used in the same sentence. For the most part, many real estate investors and agents look at wholesalers as deceptive, hard to read, and for the most part just looking to make a quick buck. While this may be true for many new wholesalers, it's far from the truth for Jamil Damji. If anything, Jamil wants to put an end to inexperienced, and often financially dangerous wholesaling.You could say Jamil was made to be a wholesaler. He had hustle, cold calling skills, and the will to succeed after being rejected from medical school simply due to his age. He set up a website-building business and got the hang of cold-calling quite quickly. After overhearing a discussion about a real estate deal between his partner and his partner’s father, Jamil decided to take his sales skills and turn them into something a bit more profitable. He made a phone call to a local property owner, secured a deal for his partner, and walked away with a $47,000 assignment fee.Now, Jamil runs one of the most respected wholesaling companies in the United States. He’s set up an “everyone wins” style of wholesaling where sellers, buyers, and intermediaries in between all get paid fair prices while incentivizing each party to do what’s best for the other. This is a brand new concept in the field of wholesaling and one that Jamil wants to see flourish throughout the industry. If you want to learn how Jamil and his team do sixty to eighty deals a month, all while building a loyal customer base, this is the place to be.In This Episode We Cover:How wholesaling works and why so many new investors start with itThe best types of listings to call to find motivated sellers plus where to build your buyers listWhy illegalizing (or at least licensing) wholesaling would be favorable for the industryHow wholesalers can work with agents to build each other’s businesses fasterThe biggest mistake wholesalers make when trying to assign contracts to buyersBuilding a “win-win” system so everyone in the transaction becomes a repeat customerAnd So Much More!Links from the Show:Coming Soon: BiggerPockets's On The Market PodcastTriple Digit Flip ShowRobert Abasolo's InstagramRobert Abasolo's TikTokDavid Greene's InstagramDavid Greene Real Estate Youtube ChannelKKeyGleeFunny or DieUpright Citizens BrigadeThe Second CityCraigslistU-HaulThe Comedy StoreD.R Horton Company WebsiteSaturday Night LiveBrandon Turner's InstagramConnect with Jamil:Jamil's InstagramJamil's YouTube ChannelCheck the full show notes here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/real-estate-593See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
