Post: First time wholesaler: How many properties to look at?

The number of properties are not the issue. The correct "type" of property is what is important. One that will have equity in it, a distressed seller, a run down property, a vacant property, etc.

Post: What's the best way to take a deposit on a wholesale deal?

The above stated methods certainly work very well, however, I collect my wholesale fee at the time that I assign the contract. Reason is that I am selling the right for the end buyer to purchase the property at a negotiated price. In essence I am selling a piece of paper and get paid before they go to the close table. My contract does state that if the property does not have a clear title, the buyer is entitled to their fee to be refunded.

Hope this helps,

Robin

Depends on your state laws.

Welcome David.
Make sure you read and educate yourself BEFORE you turn all of that money that is comming your way into a deal that may not prove to be investment worthy!

Keep us posted.

No need to put 10% down if you buy the right way. Oh by the way, welcome to BP! Great site. Make sure that you do a lot of reading but your basic monopoly plan definatly works. I am working on trading in my green ones for a red one.

Good luck and great to have another Pa person on the site!

Lang,
With assuming that you are wholeselling the deal, it is not even an issue that you would have any out of pocket expenses. You are simply selling a piece of paper which gives the buyer the "Right" to purchase the property at your negotiated price. The closing of the deal basically has nothing to do with your business.

Welcome. Have you been to Reading PA for investing? It seem that there are more and more people coming down from the big apple all the time.

I agree that we have more room to fall. Comodities will not be getting any cheaper and people will not be able to afford many things including their homes with the trend being what it has been the last 2 years.

Also touch base with your title company to get their prospective on how it can be done.
