What does it take to go from zero real estate experience to closing over 130 wholesale deals in just two years? Welcome back to the Real Estate Sports Podcast with Arvin Garcia and Eric Cusamano! In Episode 10, we are taking you straight into the trenches with our good friend and acquisitions killer, Alfredo.
