I know this an epic debate for investors but my personal opinion leans towards having a license especially if you in the wholesale business.... puts a layer of disclosure on top of course but allows you to give the property owners some options. 1) "I have investors who are looking for properties like yours that can pay cash and close quickly to solve your problem Mr Seller" or 2) "Just need to sell but don't have an urgent time constraint you say?

Not meaning to start a raging debate about who's right, because I suspect any competent pro in the list above could do a fine job.Just curious about what the thinking is behind the various doc prep routes I've read about from BPers so far, and which one might fit my PM lender situation the best.Cheers, and thanks for any insight!

I have meet more smoke blowing investors than wholesalers by far. i think people try way to hard to get that BP "debate starter badge" 

Buying a college rental could be a great idea, if your going to college that is, that's up for debate elsewhere on the BP forums.

@Sue Bishop  the note experts on this site do not like partials as there is a debate whether these are securities.I have hypothecated notes to my bank.. of course I was the note holder and the bank the investor and these work well.I notes are kind of the wild west really.. who knows who needs to be licensed what states.. etc etc.probably nothing comes of it until you do it and you end up in a big embroilio  

I see a debate between folks.

I have two properties closing soon we are debating wholesaling.

Looks like Bob's account got terminated and a bunch of posts got censored out, that's what happened ... so much for being able to have an open debate in public forum.

It's not a rich vs middle class debate...it's a consumer vs investor one.

I am currently debating on a few options to help me get started.
