A Quick Note Before Your Call

In one line: a nationwide real estate wholesaling business you own, running on your own online lead generation, monetized through wholesale assignments and novation deals. Not an agency. Not rented leads. Not a course.

First, congratulations. You just did the thing most people sit on for years.

Before our call, I want to be straight with you about what this actually is, because it's bigger than what most people think they're signing up for.

You're not here to buy ads. You're not here to hire another agency. You're here to build a real estate wholesaling business you actually own. One that runs nationwide, off your own online lead generation, and turns those leads into cash two ways: wholesale assignments and novation deals.

The leads are just the engine. The business is the asset. Once it's installed, it's yours: the accounts, the data, the leads, the system. No retainer, no middleman, no renting.

Here's how to get the most out of this page before we talk:

  1. Watch the short system video below so you understand the mechanism (the Identity Monopoly System). It's what makes your leads cost $20 to $35 instead of the $150 to $250 everyone else pays.
  2. Skim "What You Get" and the operator results so you see it working in real markets.
  3. Read the Q&A at the bottom. I answer the exact questions almost everyone asks me on these calls. The more you absorb here, the more our call is about your situation instead of me explaining the basics.

See you on the call.

What to Expect on the Call

15–20 minutes. Not a 45-minute sales pitch. We move fast because you've already done the homework on this page.

1

Your market, your current marketing, what's working, what's broken. Short.

2

The Recommendation

We tell you honestly whether Academy or Kickstart fits, or whether neither is right yet.

Next Steps

Review the rest of this page before your call. The more context you absorb now, the more we can focus the call on your specific situation instead of explaining the system from scratch.

Our goal is alignment, not persuasion.

Please don't no-show.

The Identity Monopoly System™

Before the call, here's what you need to know about what makes this different.

Most wholesalers run generic "WE BUY HOUSES" ads that compete with 15–20 other investors for the same seller. We don't do that.

We use 6 Trust Avatars that speak to sellers before they're motivated:

⚖️
Probate

Inherited property situations

🏦
Financial Distress

Foreclosure, behind on payments

📦
Downsizing

Empty nesters, relocation

🔑
Tired Landlord

Tenant burnout

🔧
Repair Burden

Properties needing major work

🔄
General Distressed

Divorce, job loss, life changes

Each avatar speaks directly to that seller's specific situation.

Who Is Cris Chico?

The Godfather of Virtual Wholesaling

I coined the term "Virtual Wholesaling" back in 2008. Long before it became an industry standard. Nearly 20 years pioneering real estate marketing strategies. Tens of thousands of customers served. Still actively running deals using this exact system every month.

  • Facebook ads for motivated sellers, when everyone said it wouldn't work
  • TikTok ads for real estate investors, before anyone else was testing the platform
  • YouTube ads for wholesalers, building the frameworks investors still use today
  • Running my own motivated seller campaigns right now. I'm a practitioner, not just a teacher

Over the last 15+ years, I've helped operators build acquisition systems that run on autopilot. Big names. Micro celebrities in their niches. And hundreds of quiet operators doing $30k–$100k/month from their laptops.

I've built the playbook. Now I'm going to install it in your account.

We've got a great reputation because we only take on clients we know we can help. It's a small group, and I'm looking for the best fit.

The Build Guarantee

What we put our name on, what we won't promise, and why the honesty works in your favor.

What We Guarantee

  • We build your complete lead-generation infrastructure inside accounts you own, and that system produces motivated seller leads. That's what we put our name on.
  • You'll pay less per lead than buying from a pay-per-lead provider, and less per lead than running through an agency.
  • You're never left with nothing. Even if we parted ways, the engine is yours: the accounts, the data, the leads, the system.

What We Don't Promise, On Purpose

  • ×An exact cost-per-lead number. Your market, your targeting, and your ad account all move that figure, so anyone quoting you a hard number up front is guessing. What we stand behind is the direction: lower than PPL, lower than an agency.
  • ×An exact number of leads. That scales with your ad spend, which is yours to set.
  • ×Closed deals. Whether a lead becomes a contract is your sales execution, not our system. Anyone promising "closed deals or your money back" is either not reading you the fine print or selling something they can't control.

Why we can guarantee a lower cost per lead without quoting a number

vs. pay-per-lead: you're paying retail for a lead that four or five other investors also bought. Generating your own exclusive lead costs a fraction of buying one.

vs. an agency: your true cost per lead is your ad spend PLUS their management fee stacked on top. Own the system and that fee comes out of the equation entirely. Same lead, lower real cost, and it belongs to you.

Our Job

Build the engine, install proven creative, hand you the playbook and coaching, and keep it current.

Your Job

Fund your own ad account, follow the playbook, and work the leads fast. The operators who say "these leads are bad" are almost always the ones who let them sit. We'll show you how not to be that person.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is This For You & How It's Different
I've already tried agencies, PPL, or running my own ads and got burned. Why would this be any different?
Because you're not buying leads or renting an agency this time. Every one of those burned you for the same reason: you were paying for an output you didn't control, on a system you didn't own. The day you stopped paying, it all disappeared. What we install is the opposite. We build the lead engine inside YOUR ad account, on YOUR data, using the Identity Monopoly System that gets you $20 to $35 leads instead of the $150 to $250 generic "we buy houses" ads everyone else runs. You own it. If you and I parted ways tomorrow, the whole machine keeps running. That's the difference between renting and owning.
Why not just buy leads? Wouldn't that be simpler?
Bought leads are the most expensive thing in this business, because you're renting them and so is everyone else. The same motivated seller you buy got sold to 15 to 20 other investors at the same time. You're not competing on who closes best, you're competing on who dials fastest. When you own the engine, those leads come to you first and only you. You set your own cost per lead, you scale it up or down, and nobody can shut it off or raise the price on you. Buying leads feels simpler for exactly as long as it takes to realize you've built nothing.
I'm already running Google, cold calling, or direct mail. Which channel should I switch to?
Don't switch. Stack. The operators doing the biggest numbers aren't loyal to one channel, they own several and let the cheapest one lead. Online lead generation becomes your lowest-cost, highest-intent layer. Keep what's working, add an engine you own on top, and let the rest run in parallel. This isn't a rip-it-out-and-replace decision. It's an add-the-layer-you-don't-have-yet decision.
Does this actually work in MY market? It's small, rural, or oversaturated.
That's the whole point of building it nationwide. You are not limited to your backyard. We train you to close deals 100% virtually in any market in the country. Small towns where you're the only investor for miles become an advantage, not a problem. Saturated metros are just one of dozens of markets you can pull from. Your business isn't tied to your zip code. It's tied to your engine, and your engine works anywhere people sell houses.
Where does novation come in? Is this a novation thing or a wholesaling thing?
Both, by design. Wholesaling and novation are just two ways you turn the same lead into a paycheck. A clean wholesale lead, you assign for a fast fee. A lead that's too "retail" for a normal wholesale (too much equity, seller wants close to full price) is the one most investors throw away. With novation you list it on the MLS and make $25K to $35K plus on the exact deals your competition deletes. Same lead flow, two monetization paths, so almost nothing gets wasted.
I need to run this by my partner or spouse first.
Totally fair, and you should. Here's how to make that conversation productive instead of a three-week stall: the question isn't "should we spend money on marketing," it's "do we want to own our lead generation or keep renting it." Send them this page. Have them watch the system video and look at the operator results. Come to the call together if you can. The people who bring their partner to the call close the loop in one conversation instead of playing telephone.
Am I too far along, or too much of a beginner, for this?
The system serves both ends, for different reasons. If you're experienced and already doing deals, this replaces your most expensive, least-controllable cost (rented leads or an agency) with an asset you own, and the novation layer adds revenue you're probably leaving on the table right now. If you're newer, you skip years of trial and error and start on the same engine the veterans use, with coaching so you're not guessing. The one person it's not for: someone who isn't ready to put real money into marketing yet. We'll be honest with you about that on the call.
Getting Started & What to Expect
What if I've been using an agency and have never managed ads myself?
That's exactly why you get 12 months of coaching alongside the install. We build the complete system inside your account, hand you a step-by-step playbook for the weekly maintenance (about an hour a week), and you have access to coaching calls plus direct support whenever anything comes up. It's managing a system, not learning to become a marketer.
How much time will this take after handoff?
About 1 hour per week to manage your Meta ecosystem. Check dashboards, rotate creatives, adjust budgets. That's it.
How technical does the day-to-day management get?
Not very. After we install the system and dial it in, your weekly maintenance is checking a few numbers in a dashboard, occasionally rotating a creative, and adjusting a budget. We provide step-by-step instructions for every task, and you can always hop on a coaching call if anything comes up.
Program Structure & Ownership
Is this a course or a service?
It's a hybrid. We build the entire system for you (done-for-you setup of ads, funnels, and tech), but we also provide 12 months of coaching and support so you know how to run it. You get the best of both worlds: a professional installation and the knowledge to manage it long-term.
Do I own the system, or do I pay a monthly management fee?
We are anti-agency. You own everything: the ad accounts, the data, the leads, and the landing pages. We build it inside your business. There are no monthly retainers or management fees paid to us after the initial setup.
Budget & Fit
What's the minimum ad budget I need to make this work?
Our clients spend $1,000/month at the minimum ($33/day), and most spend $33–$100/day based on their market and goals. You decide what works for you. Every dollar goes into your own ad account, not to us. For context, if you're currently spending $1,500–$3,000/month on an agency or PPL service, you can redirect that same budget into a system you own.
What if I'm not currently spending money on ads?
Our paths require a minimum ad spend of $1,000/month ($33/day), so if you're not yet ready to invest in marketing, we may not be the right fit. The system is designed for operators committed to marketing who want better results and full ownership. Most clients run between $33–$100/day and scale from there.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, with honest boundaries. We guarantee the build: a lead-generation system you own that produces motivated seller leads, at a lower cost per lead than PPL or an agency. We don't promise an exact cost per lead, a lead count, or closed deals, because those depend on your market, your spend, and how you work the leads. See "The Build Guarantee" section above for the full breakdown.
