You might have to embrace the suck and pay the $1900 or he could put a lien on the property.

Agreed with Paul...embrace the *AND* not the *OR*... :-)Also, it's not just about the money...Personally, my personality suits flips more than wholesales (I don't like marketing, and can farm this part out for retail sales but not on wholesales), so I'd rather do flips even if I made the same amount by wholesaling.Wholesaling is something I could do if I had a partner who could compliment my weaknesses...but barring that, it doesn't matter how much money I could make, I'd be miserable doing it on my own...That said, I think someone who builds a wholesale business in a well-structured and scalable way could do quite well with it...probably just as well as flipping given the same amount of start-up capital...it's just a different set of skills...
