Flipping, wholesaling, and RE Agent all at once?

[Ezra Henderson]

I am assuming some of you wholesalers/flippers out there are also real estate agents, or at least have an agent on your team… so this question is directed to you. 

When you are marketing (be it direct mail, cold calling, online advertisements, etc.) do you offer both your services as a cash buyer, and a realtor? I understand this can get a little bit messy, but I also feel like a large part of the audience my marketing reaches may not be interested in selling off market, but would possibly be interested in listing their house on the MLS. Part of me feels like ending the relationship because they aren't interested in an off market offer as a wholesaler/flipper is leaving money on the table.

If you don’t do this, why not?

And if you do, how do you do it? Do you advertise yourself as both a cash buyer, and a realtor? Or do you just wait for them to tell you they aren’t interested in your cash offer, and then tell them you would be happy to list it for them if they would like?

Thanks BP!
