There are a lot of wholesalers who are buying lists of properties in foreclosure / default and do not realize this in many states is considered predatory.As taxes and insurance increase along with homeowners having equity, states will start to catch on to this and my guess is start going after more of these wholesalers.It will be an easy win for them as most wholesalers act as brokers illegally (do not do double close) and do not let the homeowner know all the options available to them (modifications/ bankruptcy), they are out to solely benefit in their behalf which in itself is predatory

The pre-settlement era seemingly encouraged buyers to self-represent, lured by the possibility of claiming the buy-side commission for themselves.Now, with this incentive structure altered, it will be interesting to see how the dynamics and strategies of unrepresented purchasing change in the current market.

That is not a winning strategy as @Peter Tverdov said.

Cost of e&o insurance, mls access, association dues, and electronic key access are on the verge of rising dramatically.
