Need help with working with an agent and a wholesaler

[Patrick C.]

Hi BPers:

Can anyone please provide some assistance and/or direct me to references in working with agent/wholesaler.

Basically, if you are presented with some deals by an agent from a wholesaler. Some questions are:

1) Do I work with them if they required non-refundable earnest money?

2) Do I pay the agent or the seller pays?

3) Anything that would prepare me for looking at these deals and getting up to speed quickly.
