Summary

If I had to put food on the table and close a deal in 30 days flat, I know exactly what I’d do. And I lay it all out right here. No fluff, no gimmicks, just the real, raw strategy that works when you work it.

You don’t need fancy tools or massive budgets. You need a simple plan and the grit to make 20 calls a day. In this episode, I share how I’d choose a hot land market, build fast rapport with realtors, and stack up conversations that lead to actual contracts. I even walk through exactly what I’d say on the phone and how to get agents sending you off-market deals week after week.

Whether you’re new to the game or needing a reset, this episode is your roadmap. It’s practical, doable, and built to get results fast.

What’s Inside: 

—Why talking to 20 people a day changes everything

—How to use realtors to find deals and buyers without direct mail

—The one simple question that turns cold calls into contracts

If I had to do a deal and make some money in 30 days, this is exactly what I would do.

0:19.9

So I'm Joe McCall. This is the REI in your car podcast. And I'm actually in my Tesla that I bought a couple months ago. I'm loving this thing. And in just a minute, I'm going to do full self-driving all the way to the coffee shop. And all I have to do right now is press the break. And it's going to go. I'm going to the, oh, I have to hit the start self-driving

0:39.1

function. This is insane. I just got a new update and it's pretty cool. But anyway, I'm still

0:44.9

going to be paying attention. All right. But if I had to do a deal in 30 days and make some

0:52.0

money because I had to pay the mortgage or whatever, this is exactly what I

0:56.4

would do. First thing, I would make a plan. My plan would be really, really simple. I would want to call

1:04.6

at least and talk to at least 20 people a day. Normally I tell folks, hey, you just need to talk to five people

1:12.6

a day. But I need to make money in 30 days and I need to make it fast because I'm going to not

1:18.3

pay my mortgage or my rent or whatever and I'm going to get kicked out of my house. So my

1:23.0

why is big enough. I talk about this a lot. When your why is big enough, the how we'll find a way, right?

1:28.7

So I would make it a goal to talk to 20 people a day. Now, that's an aggressive goal. And the reason

1:36.8

why I like it is because it forces you to be like really concise on the phone and not waste time with tire kickers. You're in business to make money today. And so I'm not going to waste any time talking to somebody who doesn't have a deal they want to sell, doesn't have a deal they want to buy. And it's just I'm not going to waste time, right? So when I'm talking to somebody, I got to be real quick and to the point.

2:01.8

Now I'm going to be nice. I'm not going to be a jerk, but I'm going to make it a goal to talk to 20 people. If I don't make the goal and I only talk to 10 people, well, that's still really, really good. So I would talk to 20 people a day and I would be really asking them two questions. number one do you have a deal you want to sell Number one, do you have a deal you want to sell? Or number two, do you have a deal you want to buy? And I feel pretty good that if I can do that, I will find one person who's got a deal they want to sell and another person's got deal. They want to buy and I'd wholesale the deal to them. All right. So you notice I'm not doing any direct mail. I don't have the

2:34.1

time to do direct mail, to send the letters, to get them out, to get the calls back, to talk to

2:40.2

them, negotiate. So I'm just going to get on the phone. And I often say this. The phone is not a 500

2:45.9

pound cactus. Oh, this is scary. Here we go. Oh my gosh. This is insane. It's actually working. This new update too with Tesla, you can change it to where it's more aggressive or less aggressive on the full self-driving. All right. So anyway, 20 people a day. Do you think after 15 days, or let's say after 10 days, I've talked to 200 people? Do you think I might find somebody who's got a deal they want to sell and somebody who's got a deal they want to buy? Yeah. All right. So who would I call? What would I do? I would call a couple things. People. First thing I would do is I would call realtors who are selling vacant land that have been on the market. Well, actually rewind. I would find a hot market where there's a lot of activity.

3:27.1

I would find a market in Florida probably where there's a lot of recent buyers buying vacant land.

3:34.4

Okay, so I would dig deep into finding a couple hot zip codes where people are buying small, cheap lots of vacant land to build homes or

3:43.7

something like that. But then I would go in and find, you know, are there a lot of buyers that

3:48.1

are buying land here? Is there just one or two buyers that are buying the land here? And if I find a

3:52.9

hot pocket where there's a lot of activity, I know, all right, well, I'm in a honeypot here. I'm in a place

3:59.8

where there's buyers that are looking for money. They're looking for deals. And so I'm not
