Is it possible to wholesale auction properties?

[Kaitlyn Robinson]

I'm currently looking to partner up with a more experienced wholesaler in my area, but also might end up wholesaling on my own (if I can try not to second guess and overanalyze every decision). I noticed on the MLS, though, that there are plenty of auction and foreclosed properties that are in popular neighborhoods where I live. I did some googling, but also wanted to ask here on BiggerPockets if it was possible and if it's a good idea for a newbie to try foreclosures and auctions.

As always, I'm open to any advice and constructive criticisms! Thanks!
