30 percent discount when wholesaling

Posted

How important is it to get a property under contract for a 30 percent discount when wholesaling? (ARV - 30%) Right now I am negotiating with a seller and with the numbers I calculated at a 30% discount puts me under another buyer. Should I hit the seller with the offer and move on if he says no or readjust the discount? This would be my first wholesale deal. Any help is appreciated thank you!

Huh?  A 16%  gross margin means you'll lose money after holding and selling costs….assuming your ARV and rehab costs were perfect.
