But why not spin it so that you ask to learn from him?

Hi Shawn,I still have a home in Huntsville, but the young adult "kids" are living there, and we visit - so we never worked through the difficult situation the City was spinning up back when I initially posted this.

You have been spinning your wheels due to the fact that you have ignored the proper process for collecting rent owed.

Thinking of listing with a 7% Co-Op fee, agents might be motivated to spin differently. 

Without those in place I am spinning my wheels. 

So, it seems I could do both at the same time, but most days my head is spinning just trying to focus on one or the other. 

you are spinning your wheels if you are trying to contact parties that don't own the property.

There are so many different ways to invest in real estate it can make your head spin.  

:)Funny story....yesterday, I was driving by the Phx Open (technically Waste Management Open, but whatever) and there was a guy spinning around a sign from another Realtor that read...."

If you get your assumptions on cost of rehabs and ARV wrong, you can end up losing a lot of money.But the returns are higher.In hot markets, like it is the case in most places accross the nation, it is very difficult for wholesalers to find deals that make sense for investors and they end up spinning their wheels for long period of time without making any money.It is my impression it is difficult to make a good living from wholesaling.A common path for a lot of people is to start doing (or thinking of doing) wholesaling, then do fix and flips then move on to doing Buy and Hold when it makes sense.
