If “wholesaler” (used in the sense of contract flipping, not people who close on purchase and resell) were required to disclose in writing to home sellers that they are not purchasing the home, are only trying to “flip” the contract, and the sale will only close IF a buyer at a higher price can be found, would this eliminate the need (if a need does exist) for government regulations being enacted and or for “wholesalers” to be licensed real estate agents?

My problem is that I believe people when they tell me things.My solution is to use an employment agency. 

I always tell people the best way to find off-market deals is to focus on one specific market, network, do deals there, etc.

We don't have a network built up yet and we'd love to meet some people who actually do this.

Not to mention, it's becoming increasely difficult to find people who'll agree to return to the unit to perform repairs due to tenant's behavior.How would you handle this?

People typically pay people $1 per sign to put them out.

If there is a potential for loss of any kind, then you are using their funds for your benefit - i.e. gambling with other peoples money - so definitely a place you don't want to go.

I'd love to help more people get started in the industry and want to connect with some new agents!

Sure, people will tell you that you can without talking to the bank, but they could call the loan due at any time (assuming there is a due on sale clause, and there probably is).

I got my license earlier this year so I can keep growing my portfolio and help other people learn what I did.
