Wholesaler perception as unethical?

[Eddie Garcia]

My first post I believe to BP although I’ve read numerous posts within multiple forums. I get a feeling from the community here - specifically buyers - that the wholesaler is unethical 99.9% of the time and not to be trusted with deals. I’m ready to begin working on moving into real estate starting with wholesale to fund other eventual real estate strategies (flips, buy/hold, multi tenant, etc). However, will this negative connotation of wholesalers in general cause setbacks? Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
