@Mark Munson Understood and I probably should have rephrased my question to “why would an investor work with a wholesaler who then contacts agents for investment properties”.

That said, I've never understood the "doors" thing from a financial perspective.More doors means more people. 

He understood and we had a great conversation.

I've read and listened to many things, time to see if I've understood them or if they went through the void that's between my ears.

I'll admit that our agents understood what it would take to close this deal, but we felt that our interests were overlooked and that we had to be extra diligent in protecting ourselves.

He walked me through the process from start to finish, took many hours of his time to help me make sure I knew and understood everything i needed to so I could invest. 

He helped us find money sources and much more.When he left we felt like we understood how to analyze a property for condition and scope of work needed, how to financially analyze a deal with the spreadsheets he gave us, how to write offers, and how to deal with the world of real estate.  

Now, I'm not accounting for closing costs here because I just want this concept to be understood. 

It would be to your advantage if the broker both offered and understood Delayed Financing. 

Maybe because I used to listen to their podcasts every day before I got my new job and no longer have 60 mile commute to and from work every day.But I have never understood the negativity about this group - at least not at the $500 account membership.
