Is it Legal to List a Wholesale Deal on Zillow?

[Samuel Hopkins]

In the state of Virginia, would it be legal for me to publicly advertise a wholesale deal that I have under contract on Zillow, Facebook, Craigslist, etc...?

My contract states, “sellers agree that buyers may advertise property and have access during reasonable hours to show property to others”.

Just for clarification, I would be advertising the CONTRACT to buy the property, not the PROPERTY itself.

Thank you for replying to my post.

I was going to list it online as, “Contract to Purchase 123 Main Street” or something along those lines rather than just the address itself.

I suppose I also could just post pictures of the property on Facebook, Craigslist, etc... without the address and just say, “call me for more information” and give the address privately over the phone.

No matter how you plan to list it, I would make sure your attorney gives it the green light. Of course you can do as you please and people will tell you all kinds of things are legal/illegal, however they won’t be there to help you out if you get in trouble for it.
