No, I've not done a wholesale transaction. I'm focused on REOs, at the moment. I am on the buyers list for a number of local wholesalers, though, and have spoken with quite a number of them. Its a fairly common topic at our REIA, so I've heard fairly thorough descriptions of various forms of wholesale transactions.
I'd recommend getting a few books on RE investing, and start reading. "Flipping Properties" that you mention above, for example, walks through the process.
Is flipping home the same concept of wholesaling?

To become a millionaire just buy more houses, at a bigger discount (65% ARV)....make sure they cash flow...and hold onto them for a long time...Also do a lot of subject-to's so you aren't putting any money into the deal.
What you ment by 65% ARV. Does mean I have to find a property under a 65 percent discount under its current market value?
