How do I prevent
How do I prevent cash buyers from taking away my wholesale deal? Can't they just by pass me when they are getting ready to see the property and talk straight with the owner?

Welcome Luis Chavez, try the search feature up in the right hand corner of the page. There are tons of threads dealing with the ins and outs of this.
The long and short of it is if you are really wholesaling you have a signed contract with the seller, meaning they can't back out and sell to someone else. If you don't have a signed contract then you're not really wholesaling you're unlicensed brokering which is a no no. But search up there and you'll find lot of info.
