Are investors concerned about the spread?

Hello, I am have been finding really amazing properties throughout the Greater Tampa Bay Area and am wondering....as long as the numbers work for a potential end Buyer (investor)- should they be concerned about my spread?

We are closing on a house for 33k where a wholesaler bought for 23k.  Not bad for the little work.  I think some investors will be wired to want to move into that territory and operate as a wholesaler.  I like the deal at 33k so I'm not bothered a bit.  It will depend on who you're talking about.

That said, you're a realtor (I think).  If I'm dealing with a realtor and they are expecting more than the traditional 2.5-3% they had better be doing more than the usual realtor - ie finding off market deals, etc.

If they can do that, well, why not pay for it?  A good deal is a good deal.
