quick wholesaling question

Charles Salumn
Posted

alright guys im still trying to figure out what direction i want to go in... i really want to be a landlord and own multiple properties for cash flow but to be honest i dont have that much money for down payments and as far as credit i'm just starting to build it up... so i am contemplating wholesaling.

My question to you is if i find a seller that is motivated everything is a go and i have the property for lets say 14- 30 days or however long the contract is for and i drop the ball and cant find another buyer... am i obligated to buy the house or does the contract become null and void?....

just trying to get all the bases covered

Work on both at the same time. Its not as if a seller is going to fall into your lap immediately. Its a lot like sending out resumes for a job. If you send one, and wait for a response before sending a second, you'll be a long time looking for a job.

The point about knowing what your buyers want is a good one, though. If you don't have specific criteria from buyers, be very conservative in what you agree to purchase from a seller.
