In this episode of Real Estate Investing Fast Track, I break down a Greenwood Lake, NY wholesale deal that I didn’t even want to buy myself.
But just because it wasn’t a deal for me doesn’t mean it wasn’t a deal for someone else.
I got it under contract for $150K and assigned it for $168K, making an $18K profit with a smooth, transparent transaction from start to finish. I go over how I found it through direct mail, why I passed on flipping it, and how I still made money by assigning it to another investor.

-Always require a minimum 5-10% earnest money on non-contingent offers
-Call the lender to vet your buyer — no matter what
-Enforce your contract when a buyer defaults

👉 If you have a real deal, it will sell.
If you’re struggling to dispo your deals, it’s not your buyer’s list or your market—it’s your numbers.
I walk through real examples of deals that sold quickly vs. deals that didn’t sell at all, and explain why good deals sell themselves while bad deals sit.
