My son and his roommates are aware their house has been put up for sale, and guess what, they're all moving out.

They collect a coupon and then a % of the appreciation.I guess its a similar(though not exact) model.In the case of the book it sounds like they raise the money up front from investors and they don't get a an equity partner like (Lehman or a HML).

These people indicate that their motivated but i guess not as motivated as i would like for them to be.

Lot of people end up replacing a job they hate with wholesaling and it turns into, you guessed it, a job they hate.Wholesaling is where you find a really great deal and sell it to another investor as a great deal and keep the profit the "really" part of really great deal created.
