Im not experienced enough to give advise. Theres alot of studying behind wholesaling. But check your state laws and do you homework but i dont think you need a realitor to wholesale is most areas, because its for sale by owner, which is you. 

Please do your research and/or get a mentor or coach.

This topic kinda bugs me so id figure i throw it out there to get other opinions on the matter.

Now I'm a new investor and I'm currently wholesaling to build a foundation as a successful real estate investor. I want the company and myself to be known as a honest, as accurate as possible, and straightforward solutions provider. I must admit my business skills are rough and my style of doing things are weird, but hey! I'm new to this and still learning which is the best part of this career. Your always learning!

Ok back to the wholesaling thing, I tend to avoid "cash buyers" that primarily state they are "wholesalers". My reasoning is that i don't feel its fair that an investor should have to pay an assignment fee more then once. Now my best ideal solution to this topic, is that if another wholesaler has a buyer when you don't. Then maybe the original assignment fee should be split by an ageed percent between the two wholesalers to prevent the end buyer(investor) from getting charged twice on the same real estate transaction. 

Could I get some thoughts on this???

Ive had a similar situation. There was a property at 54% of ARV. But the guy owed more to the bank then he was selling it for. Im pretty new so I passed on it cause i figured i needed to research how to do shortsales and foreclosures properly first.

Hey Ladies and Gentlemen,

Please excuse my absence from BP, structuring my business has been very time consuming. I have been reading alot of books and getting my feet wet in the real estate world. But, im missing my BP friends so i came back to see whats been going on. And im so looking forward to another BP meetup in the Omaha NE area.

I'm registered for a seminar at the same time but I'm trying to sweet talk my wife into attending that for me so I can meet with real people. Yeah, those seminars might be boogus but sometimes they give a different outlook on things even WO buying into the program. None I have been to ever directly states its easy, for example, the well debated Fortune Builders. But if you expect an easy ticket from poor to wealthy then your only misleading yourself. Thus hard work andeducation (whether it be school, books, or internet research, or whatever) it boils down to what you put into it to how  successful you'll become. Just my two cents on things even though I'm as green as they get.
