Expert Speaker Podcast


Aug 7, 2025

In this episode of the Expert Speaker Podcast, Majeed Mogharreban interviews real estate investor and wholesaling expert Theresa Beneteau. With 37 years of experience and a deep passion for helping others escape the 9-to-5 grind, Theresa shares how she went from nearly losing her first home at 20 to building a multi-country real estate empire—all starting with wholesaling. She breaks down exactly what wholesaling is, how it works in any market, and how she made $55K from one deal—without owning, fixing, or even visiting the property.

Key Takeaways:

What Is Real Estate Wholesaling?
Wholesaling is the process of putting a property under contract and then selling that contract to another buyer—without ever owning the property.

Theresa’s Origin Story
From struggling 20-year-old homeowner to real estate mogul, Theresa shares the raw and real story of how she learned about wholesaling from a mentor who changed her life.

A $55,000 Payday Story
Theresa details a creative win-win-win transaction that helped a distressed seller avoid a lawsuit and gave a buyer an incredible investment opportunity—all in just four days, netting her $55,000 without ever touching the property.

How to Find Good Deals
Motivation is key—distressed sellers create opportunities. Theresa explains why understanding seller psychology is more important than negotiating tactics.

Wholesaling in Any Market
Whether you’re in a recession or a hot market, the strategy stays the same. The key is identifying the right buyers and markets.

The Power of Remote Wholesaling
Thanks to today’s technology, wholesaling can now be done completely remotely, even across borders.

Why She Wrote "Insta Wholesaler"
Theresa's book distills 35+ years of experience into a step-by-step guide for anyone—especially 18 to 30-year-olds—who wants to enter the real estate game the smart way.
