Knowing how to find deals is not the most important thing that brings success in real estate.
Most gurus teach how to find the deals first. Every e-book or course you get starts out teaching how to find motivated sellers or find the deals and quite frankly they set people up for failure or at least a long time of learning before they become successful in real estate.
Learning backwards is the true secret. If you first learn how to find buyers, then in any market you will be able to make consistent cash flow by always selling your deals.
If you have buyers set up waiting to receive information on your deals, then you basically have an ATM machine just waiting for you to insert a deal and make a withdrawal.
It is totally cool to be able to pick up a deal and within a few hours have it under contract to sell. That is the best feeling there is.
So focus on learning how to find buyers first.
When you control the buyers you controls the cash!
