Tired of the same old wholesaling grind? Today, we have Karl Spielvogel, who uncovers hidden real estate opportunities by tackling the complex problems others avoid. Karl specializes in properties with tangled title issues, judgments, and other unique challenges. He'll share his secrets for turning these complicated situations into lucrative deals with less competition, offering a fresh perspective for ambitious wholesalers.

Karl made $249,000 on one deal after finding out two of the owners were deceased. He left a note and a FedEx package explaining the situation to the living owner, and after nine months, she contacted him, leading to the deal. In this deal he bought three properties — one was bought for $57,000 and sold for $125,000!
