As far as I know they both perform the same basic search that will search your chain of title for defects or clouds on title.

Always get a title report to review chain of title and to make sure no other liens are ahead of you. 

They're lower on the food chain and there is a reason for that.

They care about making it to the next week and hopefully getting a few meals Yes, I can make some money still....just have to manage the higher percentage bad debt, higher evictions, and more tenants that cause damage when evicted.

That, and I kinda feel like it's not dissimilar to daisy chaining wholesalers. 

Yes, I didn't miss too many meals....A good broker will save you money too, so even if the points are there, check the deal and look at the big picture.Glad you got a good one...

Every additional link in the chain means less money for you, so dealing with other wholesalers is likely not the best bet.

I'll learn how to write contracts, open and follow escrows, learn about the chain of title, learn about financing, get to really know and understand the values of real estate in the local market, and pick the brains of successful agents.

I have heard good things about Susquehana which is a local chain. 

@Chad Urbshott , I think it makes perfect sense that college students who possibly have part-time jobs or may have never worked a day in their lives would expect granite, etc. in their student housing :)  But seriously, when you start to compare the cost of on-campus student housing (with the accompanying required meal plans) to $500 per person in a nice apartment/house with full kitchens and upgrades, it really does seem to provide more value.
