Disclosing Wholesale intentions to agent
I am looking at a house listed on MLS. Should I tell the agent that I may assign it to someone for wholesale?

I'm confused. Can you not find an off-market "real" opportunity to wholesale to a retailer, or did they not teach you that in the boot-camp...? hahaha
Well I'm not usually one to call anyone out, but who would ever want to learn from someone who is so obnoxious?
Oh wait you're an author? Oh, not really... it's an online book, that's really a sales pitch? A cheap sales pitch that tries a "takeaway close" of "our program is wait listed" before anyone expresses interest? This whole deal reminds me of one of my local (Las Vegas) ambulance chasers, flooding TV and radio and any other medium looking for naivety in people to take advantage of. Should we call you cheap suit Joey?
See anyone can be obnoxious, but I bet no one gets anything productive out of it.
