I did Quartz one time only because it was on sale for the same price as granite and the buyers loved it, but I like the look of granite because it's not as uniform as Quartz, which makes it look unique.

Few agents will spend their time or money working on an open listing, except when the property is very unique or if the the inventory of homes for sale is very low. 2.

Its a very niche part of RE. 

And since i have a very specific niche and pricing structure I am always the last one they call and the clients usually have run out of time and are going to lose the deal and their deposit if they cant close in 3 to 5 days.. :)  So i turn them to yes or no in 24 to 48 hours so i dont hold anyone up.Just had one today  Pacific Palisades land deal  appraised 50mil but guy will take 20 mil if we can close in 10 working days.. needs dough for a deal in Vegas..

There are some other things you should do after you make your selections of your niche and market ares.  

It creates a different dynamic, and I don't know that there are very many investors out there that can help counsel me through those unique challenges… If there are any.

Read books on investing in real estate, listen to the podcasts, attend webinars and stay active on the forums while connecting with other investors in your area and pick a niche.

You might consider Niche or Specialized Housing like student housing.

You will find that you can have larger swings when you deal with unique properties as that requires experience from the appraiser to understand the market.  

I'm not here to complain about that - I'm here to see if there is a way to do things better.Is it possible for wholesalers to have a unique selling proposition?
