Wholesaling Craigslist FSBO's
Someone recently advised me to:
1. Build a massive buyers list
2. Get Craigslist FSBO's under contract (especially fixers) for the lowest price I can negotiate.
3. Mark them up $3,000 and market them to my huge buyers list.
The guy who told me this is a billionaire.
Does this sound like good business?
I guess I should just try it instead of asking about it on this forum.

But isn't that true of any wholesale deal?
