How to Build a $100K/Month Real Estate Wholesaling Business with Max Maxwell | BP Business 15

Max Maxwell is a wholesaler, meaning he finds deeply discounted deals, ties them up under contract, then assigns them to an end buyer for a fee. Today Max tells us about his journey, from discovering he was dyslexic to joining the Air Force (“getting shot at for $20K/year”) to going broke (twice!). After all that, Max shares how he ultimately enrolled in “KZbin University” to learn the art of wholesaling.
You’ll love the story of how Max’s business really took off when he delegated a weakness (data collection) and instead doubled down on his strengths (marketing and sales). Max also walks us through how to hire an overseas virtual assistant and how his first “V.A.” came to hire other team members once he began to scale up. He goes on to break down the structure of his business and reveal which marketing techniques brought in his juiciest deals.
Max runs through his dos and don’ts for building a personal brand, as well as describes how he’s been able to build four businesses based on his wholesaling! Plus, if you know anything about Max, you know he’s a smooth negotiator. So, we asked him which skills are most crucial when developing rapport or closing a deal.
Whether you’re in the real estate business or not, this episode is full of actionable advice for getting out of your own way and designing a well-oiled machine that works for you. So, don’t miss this one, AND don’t forget to subscribe, rate, and review the podcast on your favorite app!

*Max's channel Definitely a good channel to learn from* 💪

Everyone in the wholesale biz knows of Max. He's figured out the puzzle and has really stepped on the gas to escalate his business into 7 figures in a very short time span using various systems he implements. Kudos to Max, great interview!

[@mkelly1118]

Brilliant guest. Great show. Intimidating journey though - whew! Double bankruptcy sounds brutal. Max paid the cost to be the boss. Thanks for posting.

[@jasoncuthbert6566]

To Mr & Mrs Scott, awesome job on this interview, and for accepting the constructive criticism, you and the Mrs will be a force to reckon with, you guys seem so down to earth, that you are making your viewers hit pause because we don’t want to miss a thing. Thank you for what you guys are doing.

[@kristinrodriguezrealtordmv3434]

When two of my favorites collide! Woohoo! Max was at a Meetup here in the DMV a few weeks ago and his YT channel is amazing. O was wondering when he would be on BP!

[@SterlingWhiteRealEstate]

24:41 When in reality, you just need to do the first step. Don't think about step 10.. Just GET GOING!.

[@goldenchild338]

Guys please don't say that you don't need a mentor or coach. Max had one and look at His results. So I believe that it's very necessary until you know and learned it for yourself. Thanks ✌😄

[@GHCMargarita]

You can make it with one or without one there is no one way to go about things.

Very inspiring. I am also someone who doesn't fit the "employee" mold.

[@edb484]

I’ve been waiting for this one forever. Finally Max Maxwell is on here!!!

[@Chosen_One]

Yo! I asked for this dude like a year ago! Awesome podcast!

[@JoshMontgomeryRealtor]

Please when interviewing a knowledgable and articulate guest please don’t 1) interrupt him constantly, 2) answer the questions for him, 3) ask leading questions, 4) editorialize between every question. Let the man talk and share his knowledge.

[@JScottInvestor]

Hey Josh - Thanks for the feedback (I'm the co-host of the show)! Not making any excuses and I agree with you! Would like to point out that this was actually the very first podcast that we recorded (this one was released out of order), and we were just figuring out how to be good hosts. Hopefully we've gotten better over the past few months, and thank you for your patience while we continue to work on it!

[@JoshMontgomeryRealtor]

Sounds good. For your first podcast its pretty good. I’ll look for the others you’ve done since.

[@terrandysart3587]

I thought they did a great job. Sometimes when the guys do podcasts they stop talking for tens of minutes while the guest goes on and sometimes digresses from the point. I think they did a good job keeping the guest on track with the questions that were being asked. But to each their own I suppose.

[@reginaldcharles1133]

So glad I came across this episode...such a great interview with full of nuggets

[@GQ-jv9uw]

I like how around the 20 min mark how bascially it proved that you as a person will get to your goal all you have to do is choose to be strong and go through the process you will eventually figure it out how to get there

Max Maxwell is a Real Estate Investor who happens to wholesale, buy and hold for rentals, flip houses, etc. Wholesaling is an exit strategy. It is not an actual job title.

[@TheMichaelguerrero]

Max's a beast

[@MrStevestrain]

Watched this whole thing hoping the hosts would ask the obvious questions about wholesaling - what it is, the process of doing it, THEN all the ancillary things he’s done for his business. Great guest, but the interviewers never got to the nuts and bolts of wholesaling. Maybe this was for people other than beginners. I got little from this and he’s a rock star wholesaler.

[@juarez97]

For some reason I identify myself with this fellow, specially because I survived 3 attempted murders in the past. And yes..... coincidentally one of those attempted murders was when I took leave during military service too. I been using those past fears as leverage to confront my fears when investing.

Its interesting that he watches peoples lips when they talk. I'm dyslexic as well. I look at the hinges on doors to know weather I should pull or push. Both words involve similar motions with 4 letters that start with P. I'll read push at a quick glance and my brain decides I should pull.

$100K per month!! Just from wholesaling!!! So the profit spreads from each deal would be 1 deal at $100k or 2 deals at $50k each or 3 deals at $33k each or 5 deals at $20k each or 4 deals at $25k each or 25 deals at $4k each or 20 deals at $5k each, 10 deals at $10k each, 8 deals $12.5k each PER MONTH!!! God-bless him. A month is a short period of time (he must have a lot of leads)

I normally never try to leave bad comments but the hosts of this show were really bad. Josh Identified most of all your shortcomings. The female's sexual innuendo on peanut sandwiches was rather distasteful. This wasn't BiggerPockets best work.

The first few minutes into this podcast made me cringe 😬🤮 but it turned it around ! I was literally disgusted on how long you all talked about his flaws/ down falls that should have been no more than a 1 or so .
