Clarification please!

I have read so much literature that it should be coming out of my wazoo. LoL But seriously, every other book I read seems to differ on which process of wholesaling should be your first call to action. So my question is, should you find investment properties (sellers) first or should you find investors (buyers) first? Please elaborate. Thanks

@Shante Harris 

Not being able to sell a wholesale deal is a big deal, because you may leave the seller in a lurch.  Remember, you're trying to help solve their problem, while making a profit for yourself.  You don't want to tie up their property without being able to follow through.

You can avoid that situation by ensuring you analyze your deals correctly, meaning you value them (ARV) correctly and analyze the rehab costs correctly. If you get your property analysis skills nailed down and ensure you have good deals, you shouldn't have to look very hard for buyers. As I said before, the buyers will find you.
