I contacted his agent and it is actually two women, mother and daughter, that represent him.

Some consider employment, some revenues, some profit margins.According to wikipedia:"In the United States, high-frequency trading firms represent 2% of the approximately 20,000 firms operating today, but account for 73% of all equity orders volume."

With that said, many people seem to think wholesaling perfectly legal because you are not representing a buyer. 

@David Moore The banks send representatives to the auctions who are authorized to bid up to a certain amount without going over. 

These owners represent approximately 100 properties.

Before I bid on any auction I ask for a copy of the rules and talk to the representative running the process.

Are the recent improvements overstated, are the rents and tenants as solid as she represents.  

Tell the agent that they have not provided you with the information requested and that you wish to terminate the buyer's representative agreement.

One possibility Is that the son is not the Personal Representative.

They would evaluate the price, determine if the deal is in line with other properties, handle the paperwork, suggest a title company to handle the closing and prepare all of the paperwork and represent your best interest at no cost to you.
