Luis Mota breaks down how he and his partner consistently close 100+ wholesale deals per year in California’s Central Valley — and why wholesaling is only the starting point. In this conversation, Luis walks through his exact lead sources, average assignment fees, how they cherry-pick rentals, and how that steady deal flow funds much bigger plays, including $80M commercial developments like gas stations, truck stops, and Starbucks. He also shares how he hires acquisitions talent, raises millions without pitching investors, and thinks about scaling from single-family deals to large commercial assets.
