Multiple Wholesalers sent the same "exclusive deal"

[Wesley Merville]

I'm curious how I should handle the situation.

Obviously I want to keep my relationship with both and my professionalism to the max - what should I do as an investor when two wholesalers send me the same deal?

I think it is kind of fun to offer to buy from the guy that doesn't have it under contract and watch them try to scramble to get the deal done. This is really fun when they are trying to re-market a deal that you are the original seller.

Ned:

Fun is when you offer to buy from both, neither of whom have the deal under contract, and, eventually, the *real* wholesaler calls you to cut-out the middlemen  {I never did figure out which one of the first two was sill enough to disclose the name of his buyer}.  

Despite the entertainment value, the property itself turned out to be not much of a deal.
