You are asking too much. .I can't even walk and chew gum at the same time!

Just like the corner store that buys the gum at 50 cents and sells it for a dollar, their model doesn't work if they can only buy at 99 cents. 

Saves me from having to deal with a broker, the NRA (or whatever the alphabet regs are called), listings that I get 3% on (even though I did 90-100% of the work to get it sold), dealing with sellers who think their house is worth more than it is and blaming you because there house isn't sold because they were stubborn on their asking price, dealing with buyers because you can't find that "perfect" house at their unreasonable price, investors who call you for comps without intending or means to buy the target house let alone a pack of gum, or want deals to assign and walk away because they can't close (happens to other wholesalers, too), or a number of headaches that I would have to take on being a licensed RE agent as well as an investor.Not sure if this helped anyone out, but I was chiming in with my opinion and observance of this long thread (I think this one should get an award).For grins and giggles, I'll be researching more about licensing and brokers in my area and State laws in Florida regarding RE investing.

Another 40% are lacking general business knowledge as well as RE aspects and don't recognize the fact that RE is not like dealing in shoes or selling bubble gum.
