I am going to post pictures of what a house looks like with 6 feet of garbage through out it.. we had to knock the side walls out to get the garbage out...

every state is different.. although in my opinion .. if your definition of wholesaling is to1. put a property under contract with minimum EM and No TRUE ability to close yourself2. advertise it with pictures etc on craiglist or other media3. get compensated for bringing the parties together then I do beleive this is the definition of selling RE that requires licensure.. it jsut depends on if your caught . each state is different on how they enforce with many only doing something if a actual complaint is filed .. other states will troll Craiglist and bust folks.

I noticed that one of the outlets in picture 14 looked like it had been on fire though?? 

At the same time I feel like security cameras and smart locks you control with a smart phone would take care of most of those worries.You could even try using FaceTime with the applicant for an initial phone interview then ask them to text you a picture of their drivers license in case you or the police need to track them down later.

You get the picture!

The key is to have boots on the ground to take pictures, sellers expect to see someone luckily that doesn't have to be you, you can get someone off of Craigslist to take pictures for $30-$70.

My girlfriend and I were in contact with the previous note holder, nation star, but they are no longer in the picture.

If they are looking to eliminate hassle then a 3+ month process of listing, pictures, questions from current tenants, offers, inspections, financing challenges, etc. won't sound like much fun either.  

I looked at the pictures - that house is going to need a LOT of updating and repair!

Price included MLS with changes included, Showcased realtor.com listing, lock box, large number of pictures, sign, and the appointment service.
