I am getting started in wholesaling and was wondering if anyone can check my sequence of events having to do with the process. I have found many articles and books and tutorials but the details are what are missing. I am assuming my buyer comes with cash...I understand that if loans are involved this may change things. I appreciate any advice. Thanks.
- 1. Get a call from my postcards and talk to seller
- 2.Go see the house
- 3.Negotiate a deal and make an offer
- 4.Offer is accepted and I sign Purchase contract with seller
- 5.Start Title work on property
- 6.Send out information about the house along with comparables to my buyers
- 7.First one who responds that they want the house I sign a contract with them (Assignment Contract) and have them send me earnest money check ($1,000)
- 8.Buyer and I go see the house
- 9.Buyer takes Purchase/Sell contract to Title co to start process
- 10.Buyer sets closing date with title co
- 11.If buyer wants to do an inspection this is done at buyer expense
