You should also know exactly what you are assigning as a Wholesaler as very few people actually understand this key part which, if done wrong, can lead to fines and unwanted calls from State Agencies regarding your activity.After you have your ducks in a row as far as legal, knowledge and requirements, then ways to start finding potential wholesale deals are:1) Driving for Dollars2) Online advertising "We Buy Homes"3) Meet with some local Estate Attorneys and Bankruptcy Attorneys and introduce yourself as a Real Estate Investor4) Road Side Signs: "We Buy Homes"5) Attend Local Networking Venues (like REIA Clubs, Meetups, Seminars, Etc.) to get your name out there and meet others in the business - Have Business Cards to hand outNow the hard part...learning what Investors are looking for.

I've run into this no-assign restriction on court-supervised bankruptcy liquidations, too.

@Jennifer Cintron The seller is currently in bankruptcy.

I've got an offer on a short sale in Portland that has been accepted by the owner (actually it's the bankruptcy trustee) and also approved by the lender. 

While I don't know the law there, I do know that often divorces come with bankruptcies.  

I filed bankruptcy in 2013 and have a credit score in the high 600's 3.

He works in hospital as nurse and seems to be a nice guy, he does has a bankruptcy history (home got foreclosed a few years ago).

Currently, my credit is really bad and I am in the process of filing bankruptcy, which is disappointing because the day I turned 18 I started working towards having excellent credit with a decent savings account and got in over my head.

We don't have any big things like bankruptcy, foreclosure, repossession, etc.

@Lindsay Wilcox Whether they file bankruptcy or not, you could still have a hard time collecting.
