To be honest, you are wasting your time building a cash buyers list until you actually start generating some leads. 

I'm sure you're not the first person to change your mind, and your realtor would rather know sooner rather than later so they don't keep wasting their time.

Both are relatively minimal effort and they still continue to grow my wealth while I enjoy whatever time I have in this life on things that bring me joy. 

It's a waste of your time to worry about other states while your market share is still 0.00% in California. 

@Ethan ErazoHiIt all depends..that could be so however your initial Purchase & Sale Agreement has a minimal investment from you in the form of a earnest money deposit USD10-USD100.That is your equitable interest in the property which you then assign to the cash buyer for a fee.That fee could have a balance that will be paid at closing to youThere are numerous articles and podcasts on wholesaling to listen to on BP...use them

Even if they accept it, you run the risk of starting off with a bad relationship that will bite you later.Get rid of them and start fresh with new renters.No offense to the BP podcast guest, but building a binder with comparable rentals and then asking your tenants what they're willing to pay is a complete waste of time.

We ended up finding a waste management company with way better pricing than the one they are currently using so that's taken care of.

Remember that you are a new to real estate so you may be more of a riskier borrower in the eyes of legitimate lender, anybody that is guaranteeing 100% financing with the cheapest rates you have ever seen and minimal points up front, is likely full of BS.

I'm not minimizing that accomplishment at all. 

The closing date is stipulated in the P&S agreement you have with the seller, so is the earnest money(minimal) and which attorney firm will handle the closing (your attorney firm)The assignment fee is payable by the buyer to you after closing costs are accounted forYou as a wholesaler are assigning the contract to the buyer who is going to step into your shoes as Principal to the initial P& S agreement with the Seller.
