I was offered to bird dog

[Robert Joiner]

I was contacted to bird dog properties for an investor in my area. I'm currently building my REI company using the wholesale strategy. I listened to his pitch which was pretty much find properties that meet minimum requirements and get paid at closing 500-3000. Well I explained that I'm working on my own REI company and let him know that when i find deals I can send them to him and assign the contract

My question is: Am I missing out on anything by declining his offer to bird dog for him and instead suggesting to wholesale a deal?
