Is Wholesaling for expensive markets?

[Sean Ade]

Hi BP

As a beginning investor a lot of signs point you in the direction of wholesaling. Living in Portland Oregon I hear a lot of mixed reviews about this strategy.

What I've come to start thinking is wholesaling is really only practical in less expensive markets. Most people I've met here have stressed that it is not worth trying in Portland and I'm better off finding a rental investment. 

Thoughts from anyone who has done wholesale investments in both expensive and inexpensive markets?
