Wholesaling with Honesty?

Tony Roberts
Posted

I've seen it on both sides so lets settle this here and now.

*Slides weapons across the floor*  

One side says if you offer them options of what you're planning on doing that keeps you in the clear.  Something like "Buy and Hold, or Flip or Sell to an investor I work with".    The other side says to just be honest.  That would be something like "I work with an investment group who are looking for deals like yours."  

First of all, which do you lean toward?  The option approach or the get all the cards on the table approach?

Second, GET THOSE WEAPONS OUTTA HERE!

It seems like wholesalers get a bad rep.  As soon as you make an offer they go "Are you one of those Wholesalers?"  

So BP fam.  Drop some jewels, I'm tired to searching for threads from 10 years ago with 2 responses.  Give me what you got!

Tough crowd... Unfortunately, BP generally looks at wholesalers with the same disdain that society has for Realtors. It's always comical to see the Realtors jump on with their holier than thou attitude only to log off and talk one of their clients into purchasing an overpriced house so they can get a bigger commission check.
