Wholesaler and inspection contingency
I am working on purchasing my first rental investment property and lost quite a bit of money (deposit money) after terminating my contract with a wholesaler. They are a major wholesaler with almost perfect review so I thought I could trust their repair estimates but after going back and forth with a contractor the repair was 20k over the wholesaler's estimate. After this experience I am really wanting to have an inspection contingency before putting a property on contract.
Has anyone worked with a wholesaler (especially in Houston) that actually allowed an inspection contingency?
