Wholesaling (getting houses under contract)

[James Annello]

Hello everyone,

I am trying to begin wholesaling but am slightly confused on where to start. I know everyone says that you need to find buyers first but how do you find buyers if you have nothing to sell to them. I was wondering if it would be a god idea to find a couple properties and get them under contract and then advertise those properties to start a buyers list, then grow from there. The only problem I see with this is, what if i do not find a buyer for a certain property. Could I put a contingency in that says the offer is contingent upon my partners approval. Would that cover me if I dont have a buyer or would it not be valid because I never had a "partner"

THank you everyone,

James
