But just hating on wholesaling in a wholesaling forum is so unbelievably pointless. its not dead per se  but it is starting to be regulated as it should.. oregon just passed their version. where to wholesale you now need a license and over site by the RE commission.. along with criminal back ground and a BOND.. and as we know not everyone can pass either of those with the bond being the tough one if you have bad credit your not getting a bond.

Now if I pass that income as management fees to S-corp, I pay $3.5K (SE tax) + $800 (LLC fee) + $1700 (CPA + bookkeeping) = $6K in total.

They pay rent before the due date, clean the property after every client, and if something breaks they usually repair it before I'm aware because their clients will give them bad ratings.

I’m based in Houston, TX, but I know how critical it is to find someone on the ground who’s a true investor ally, not just another agent.

Do you have to pay a bit of a premium for that luxury? 

The cost effective way starting is partner with an established wholesaler and they provide people to reach out to or pay for lists and do cold calling/door knocking yourself. 

They just pay the invoices.

And you don’t have to pay it back when you sell, you do an exchange.

That means it takes forever to pay off the mortgage meaning you're paying a mountain of interest.
