Opinion about working with wholesalers

[Ryan Moret]

Hello!

I am brand spanking new to this investing and have been doing lots of homework for the past couple of weeks. I currently own my own condo but am looking at buying an investment property and hacking it and selling the condo and using the equity to purchase other properties. 

I live in Dallas where the market is crazy hot and seems like deals where I would like to be a landlord are far and few between. Every deal I come across seems to have been grabbed by a wholesaler already.  Just curious what the opinion is about wholesalers, things I should know if I choose to work with one. Is it even wise for a first property or should I be considering something else.
