I appreciate everyone who shared their ideologies about wholesaling.

Availability of money Employmenteconomy growth Regulation like Dod FrankI request we keep the conversation focused on the business and not a battle of party ideologies. 

@Jim K. well, if you want to always take what I say to the extreme, i suppose I would have to say that the scenario you laid out is a trap - declining folks for political ideology is, i am pretty sure, illegal,,,,   So hopefully this individual would not pass my other screening.  

I feel that these are just scratching the surface of this conversation & I have had long conversations with many people about these things but my personal philosophy is that these ideologies all are worth considering but at the end of the day, action is what will prevail.   

Most people toting that ideology bought in the market downturn and are reaping the rewards now.

We had several lawmakers speak to us and take our comments as well (from both sides of the isle - just not the ones we needed the most -the Seattle-Tacoma ideologues pushing the agenda)Unfortunately this is more ideologically driven than pragmatically designed. 

I learned to fail - For some reason, the systems focused ideology stuck with me.

Notice I didn't say illegal.Your ideology that meeting many Realtors because they may have different opportunities is partially sound, although understand that other than their own listings, many are connected to the same people in this industry and have access to the same deals.

My ideology with putting less down would be a greater ROI and more money in case any unexpected expenses arise.My goal is to find a multifamily home where the rent would cover PMI, insurance, property taxes, and the mortgage.

It's their method of political pandering to the under-educated in order to obtain votes for a particular ideology (and/or they're just jealous and want to bring others down).Start encouraging kids to learn, to innovate and to think creatively (as opposed to telling them that education is just a waste of time and money) and start spending money on our educational infrastructure (so that college really isn't just a waste of time and money), and the economy will be just fine.It's been proven time and again both here and abroad...
