Wholesaling as an Agent-Maryland

[Hank Parater]

Any other Agents out there doing wholesales? Seems like a conflict of interest when talking to potential sellers.  

How about in direct mail campaigns? Should disclosure be printed?

When talking with a potential seller (listing), you are not representing them. Once you have secured the listing, I can see where the conflict arises.  I imagine if you are taking a listing from a distressed seller, you can counsel them on a realistic price to expect form an investors buyer and price accordingly.  In this situation, your wholesale fee is your sales commission.

If, after speaking with the potential seller, a cash offer makes more sense for them I don't see a conflict.  You are acting as a principal for yourself at that point.
