I'm biased and can provide reasons and data to show that using an agent will protect you, get you more money, less stress and so on.The reality is you can do it yourself, but tenants generally don't cooperate with showings and that causes lots of problems for buyer to access the unit to show, inspections, appraisals etc.

Meaning the at the end of the lease, the tenant has the option to buy (but not the obligation) whereas the seller has the obligation to sell if the the buyer chooses to buy (works just like selling stock options!)

The opportunity to create value in a high-demand market, combination of strategic location, strong buyer demand, and limited inventory makes it a compelling investmentStrengths.- Strategic Location: Close to major commuter routes (I-495, US-29) and public transit (Metro).High Demand: Inventory in Silver Spring remains tight, driving competitive offers for move-in-ready properties.Diverse Market: A mix of young professionals and families ensures a broad buyer pool.

I have multiple buyers on standby.

Still seeking a buyer Lessons learned?

from what I have seen on the Facebook its a lot of beginner wholesalers daisy chaining deals. everyone is pleasant and lots of ra ra ra .

"Who is a buyer in today's market?"

He was previously my teacher in high school, so I've had a relationship with him and I've signed a buyer's agreement with him.

Maybe they’re charging over market or could find a buyer. 

Let the wholesaler spend the money finding the motivated buyer then swoop in and cut them out..
