Using Cash to Purchase Off Market Properties Without an Agent

[Brandon Chandler]

I'm looking to purchase an off market property from a wholesaler using all cash and I won't be using an agent. 

Pardon my ignorance, but am I correct in assuming the logical thing to do is walk the property with a contractor before making an offer.

Then, after I do this due diligence and I decide the property will work for me, what is my next step? Do I contact a Real Estate Attorney to get the proper documents in order? or Does the wholesaler handle this process?  

Thanks in advance!
