Is wholesaling legal?
As a wholesaler, I always get realtors telling me stop selling real estate without a license and to get my realtor's license. I usually respond "I'm not marketing the property, I'm marketing the assignable purchase agreement".
What's your BEST response when realtors tell you this?

It is complicated. Some states dislike it more than others. I have heard from a lot of people that they do not trust wholesalers.
