They find properties and approach Sellers and secure a price, then they seek out an end Buyer (you) and sell it to you at a higher price. 

@Rachel Thomasson It’s very hard to find great prices in great locations.

Also find a lender who can move fast - we have several that can close in 15 days and less.  

Try to find a property manager that also does sales / brokerage.

Security investigated to find the renters still at our house.

Those that tell you how to raise money, how to find deals etc.

Quote from @Havital Miltz: I do not know that if someone is in the hospital you can force them to close, I am not an attorney, but I doubt any court will find in your favor, closings do not always happen exactly on the day that is planned, even if everyone is healthy and well, the wholesaler here is not the reason for the delay so I am not sure what exactly you can sue him/her for, they are also being held up due to the seller not being wellJust give the person some time to get out of the hospital, closing will probably not happen the very next day either, this is really extenuating circumstance. 

There’s so much to learn here, and I’m sure you’ll find it incredibly helpful.

I find this data super interesting, and took the opportunity to dive into their 2025 edition this week.Nationwide they say we can expect:Average mortgage rates of 6.3%, with rates edging down over the year to reach 6.2% by the end of the year.Home prices will grow by 3.7% across the US, which is pretty modest.

The last thing you want is to acquire an STR deal that looks great on paper only to find out that the neighborhood you bought in does not allow Airbnb.
