Wholesaling with an agent?

I was wondering if I have a property to purchase under contract (example purchase 120k and the market value is 190k) could I hire an agent to put this property on the MLS to get market value or close to it, with me as the middle man?


I live in Ohio and I read over the laws, looking for clarity in this kind of situation if it even occurs.

@Remington Lyman is correct. However, many agents have plenty of buyers that they are working with (especially in the current market) and may be able to bring you an off-market buyer for your property without closing on it yourself. You could figure out some split on the deal with that agent
