For example, how many wholesalers in Oklahoma still use enter into contracts without the financial ability or intentions to close themselves...lots and this is technically illegal in Oklahoma.

If you do not you have no idea what they may be hiding regarding there money management abilities.

I am not sure if VA loans will allow for a cosigner but if they don't, other means of financing (FHA) will allow for a cosigner.Whomever is the cosigner will have the debt on their credit report and it will limit their financing ability.

Account Closed  terrible advice... its one thing to be a bona fide buyer and another being a wholesaler trying to make middle man fee's with no real ability to close.clouding title is a bush league move.. unless you are buying it put up a ton of EM and seller is backing out then you can sue for performance... however probably not many have ever done this..

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.

Which do you feel is a lesser of two evils-Having a local postmark and completing it in-house or having an out of state company do it and having the ability to scale up?

If I am a cash offer...we might only beat the 2nd best by $1,000, maybe up to $2500.Now I will also assign values to longer or shorter closing times, ability to perform inspections or waive inspection etc.
