REISmartTalk: Why 50% of Your Deals Fail (And How to Close 78% of Them)

A shocking 50% of all real estate contracts fail to close nationwide. What if the biggest obstacle to scaling your business isn't finding deals, but closing them? In this episode of REISmartTalk, we sit down with David Olds, a 24-year veteran investor who has completed over 1,600 wholesale deals and is the founder of ezREIclosings.David shares his personal journey from a "half-broke" hustler to a high-volume investor, revealing the "control freak" mistake that kept his business stuck at a ceiling of 3-5 deals a month. He explains how hiring a professional transaction coordinator (TC) was the "secret sauce" that allowed him to scale to over 20 deals a month by freeing him up to focus on his "$10,000 per hour" tasks. This isn't just theory; it's a masterclass in delegation and efficiency.You won't want to miss the jaw-dropping stories from the trenches—from saving a $68,000 deal from foreclosure with only 72 hours' notice to uncovering a massive fraud case where a man was framed for murder and his properties were being sold illegally. This is the reality of the closing process and why having an expert in your corner is non-negotiable.Book a FREE coaching call at REIPrintMailFollow David Olds
