The Real Estate Investing Fast Track · Sep 22, 2026 · 11m

Think you can consistently find flips or wholesale deals on the MLS? You're looking for love in all the wrong places.

In this week's lesson, I break down:

-Why MLS deals get bid up fast, leaving no real margin

-The one exception to the rule (and why it rarely applies to most investors) -How market cycles change everything

-Why off-market deals — through direct-to-seller marketing and prospecting — are where the real money is
