You might have more luck that way then with brokers and agents trying to sell regular houses.The brokers and agents that regularly transact in an area the other brokers and agents know them and their reputation.

As for your suggestion on wholesalers how do I go about tracking one down and more importantly how do I find a reputable one?

I can't say I have seen a single person go directly into wholesaling full time, it is usually a transition that occurs after they have some experience and have fine turned their systems and built a solid reputation among local investors.

They give us others a bad reputation.

You will build relationships, nurture them, and stay involved -- and that's especially true with your property (i.e. asset) manager.I will add one more consideration for you to this thread, and that is reputation.

I don't think Craiglist is the best idea, because there are some scamers out there, but I do want to let as many local reputable people out there know I'm willing to lend my money @ the right return.

My reputation will suffer.From what I later learned, this young couple got into an argument that got heated.

If one of these guys offered; the wholesale course, the tax lein course, etc. all at reasonable prices with no upsells, then they may have better reputations like@Ben Leybovich has.

You are not going to ruin your reputation as a wholesaler on one retail deal.

I have done also the repairing from reputed company and I paid them $2 /SF.
