@Marshall Downs  you already have those designations for brokers... however in low value assets I can see where wholesalers can thrive.. agents can't make enough money on regular commissions and wholesalers can mark them up and make some better money.. depends on the area..I think agents are missing the boat  not all but many.. you simply need to tell the owner your flat fee of 5k or 10k or what have you.. the issue with wholesalers is they don't disclose what they make until some seller sees it on a hud or in a double escrow never.. and money and greed do strange things to god fearing people..

I'm 25 and look forward to spending the rest of my life thriving in real estate & building wealth for my clients, as well as my friends and family.
