Wholesaler Advice?

[James A.]

I was listening to a pod cast and the gentleman was talking about making offers on mls listings and turning around then selling them to investors.  My question is if you are trying to wholesale do and make an offer can you assign the contact or do you have to close on the property then resell it to the investor.  Do agents in the industry frown upon this or are they general ok with it?  Thank you for all the help and any advise!
