Driving for Dollars Mastery


Aug 22, 2024

Imagine wanting to be a great 3-point shooter, but every missed shot costs you $10.

You’d probably think twice before practicing, right?

That’s exactly what it feels like when you’re new to real estate wholesaling and every mistake drains your wallet. In this episode, I sit down with Rob Urban, a seasoned entrepreneur from Colorado Springs, who’s made his fair share of money—but also faced some tough lessons in real estate. Rob’s journey into real estate wholesaling wasn’t all smooth sailing. Despite his success in other industries, he slam dunked hundreds of thousands of dollars into the trash on failed marketing and missed out on even more in potential deals. But he didn’t quit. Instead, Rob learned how to turn those painful losses into valuable lessons that can save you from making the same expensive errors. Tune in as we discuss the real cost of learning, the importance of perseverance, and how to avoid throwing your hard-earned money away in real estate.

Key Takeaways

  • Learn from costly mistakes: Rob’s experience highlights the importance of turning expensive errors into valuable lessons.
  • Focus on lead quality: Cheaper, targeted leads can be more effective than expensive, broad campaigns.
  • Build genuine rapport: Establish real connections with sellers by addressing their needs, not just focusing on price.
  • Persevere through setbacks: Success often comes after pushing through tough moments and not giving up.
  • Get expert guidance: Having a mentor or coach can help you avoid pitfalls and accelerate your progress.
