It raised a couple of questions in my mind about the risks of wholesaling, namely the implications in the event that you assign a contract and the buyer backs out.It seems to me that Paid at Assignment would both:Result in committed assignees, otherwise they would risk losing the money they paid the assignor, andProvide the assignor with a significant cash cushion against breach of contract if they cannot locate another buyer prior to closing, and ultimately decide to cancel the contract with the property owner.But this raises another question.
