Show Notes

Nick Perry is the founder and executive chairman of Want To Sell Now, one of the largest wholesale real estate operations in the country. Since 2014, he's closed over 1,500 deals nationwide by building a completely virtual system—his team analyzes and contracts properties across all 50 states without ever seeing them in person. He was early to leveraging pay-per-click advertising at scale in wholesale real estate, developing systems that consistently generate deal flow in even the most competitive markets.
