About this episode

Louise Fabale runs a land wholesaling business in North Carolina from the Philippines, closing five to ten deals a month and did $30,000 in a single month. Her strategy is backwards from what most wholesalers do, because she finds the buyer and their buy box before she ever markets to a seller. In this episode she walks through the cold call that turns a stranger into a repeat buyer and the list filters she uses to skip the lots builders won't touch.   KEY TALKING POINTS: 0:00 - Intro & Business Overview 1:12 - Why North Carolina 3:07 - From Corporate to Land 6:27 - First Solo Deal 7:45 - Building a Buyers List 10:49 - Lessons & Doubts Cleared Up 12:35 - Biggest Success Story 13:33 - Filtering Land Deals 16:06 - Why Land Over Houses 17:28 - Calling & Skip Tracing Relatives 19:24 - Deal That Taught a Lesson 21:11 - 2026 Goals & Where to Find Luis 23:00 - Outro   LINKS: Instagram: Louise Fabale https://www.instagram.com/louwecsh/   Website: Smartify Academy https://www.smartifyacademy.com/   Instagram: David Lecko https://www.instagram.com/dlecko   Website: DealMachine https://www.dealmachine.com/pod   Instagram: Ryan Haywood https://www.instagram.com/heritage_home_investments   Website: Heritage Home Investments https://www.heritagehomeinvestments.com/
