352: Not So Secret Buyers That Pay $20k More for Wholesale Deals

Episode Summary

Two childhood friends built a lean $1M+ wholesaling business by wholetailing to buyers who pay $20k more—no team, just smart strategy.

Episode Notes

David sits down with longtime business partners Alex Capozzolo and Jon Sanborn, who’ve built a lean $1M+ wholesaling operation with just the two of them. They break down how finding a different kind of buyer—someone who doesn’t need a massive discount—lets them squeeze $20k+ more out of every deal. You’ll learn how they’re scaling without a team, why they favor wholetailing over wholesaling, and how Facebook groups still bring them five-figure spreads.

Alex Capozzolo and Jon Sanborn co-founded Brotherly Love Real Estate, a real estate investing and house-flipping company based in Philadelphia PA. You can find out more about Brotherly Love Real Estate here: https://brotherlyloveproperties.com/
