Our Florida mortgage practice was basically shut-down for 4 weeks due to Hurricanes Helene and Milton.

Quote from @Adam Macias: Wholesaling as it is today will be a thing of the past.It’ll truly be strange to even hear people and gurus trying to make big money off it.The more people try wholesaling but then end up not having an end buyer or cancelling contracts or trying weird things like novations, the more all of real estate will be regulated and cause requirements like licensing to be able to transact more than just your personal resident purchase.Which I don't know why hasn't happened sooner.Here's all the states (in red or yellow) requiring a license to wholesale or at least have started the process:Credit: REITipsterI think licensing and regulation is a beautiful thing that should happen if you plan to be an wholesaler and do more than one deal... which is going to be the case for anyone taking this business seriously.Or even it being regulated to need a real estate agent to do more than one deal outside of buying a personal residence.I've had plenty of failed attempts with agents in pursuit of wholesale deals and I know exactly why, it's not because the agent couldn't find me deals, it's just not practical to think there's opportunity for the numbers a wholesaler needs to make a profit on top of everyone else needing to these days.Because the only sellers who truly can sell at a deep enough discount are usually those who ran out of time and just didn't do something sooner with their situation.I know many coaches and gurus will disagree with me but there’s no regulations on youtube gurus and what they teach either.If we look at the current state of the market in hot cities, the availability of online resources to the average homeowner, how many deals can you possibly believe are available at 70% of ARV?

Start by educating yourself with foundational books like The Millionaire Real Estate Investor and practicing deal analysis using tools like BiggerPockets calculators.

.: It's not an issue IF their lease is scheduled to expire.My personal practice: when a tenant submits an application, I let them know I intend to contact their former landlords.

I also have some investor agents that send me off market deals via email on a weekly basis – which are also good to practice deal analysis. 

This forum is pretty open and people often share their knowledge and best practices, hence don't hesitate to ask any questions you want :) Good luck with your business!

Heck, even within offices, the small 1-tenant office buildings suitable for a dental practice or law practice, those are in a very different world. 

Find Brandon's videos on YouTube for the "four square" method of analyzing homes and practice.

Its simple in practice, however you need to make sure the numbers work.
