We are aiming to rent the property out and use a property management company to look after to daily aspects.

I may need to be doing more volume now, need to be more efficient and productive plus I simply like having an excuse for buying new equipment.  :-)

He co-owned a house in Daily City (near San Fran) that went to me, and it sold this summer.

Thanks in advance Just hard costs could go $150-200/sf, specially it is San Diego, it is hard to get quality workers there, even the guys that hang out in Home Depot (Supervisor -- they work too slow) are "demanding" at $25/hour DAILY CASH PAYMENT. 

The pile of 20 or so leftover books are still sitting here unread as a daily reminder taunting me.

The whole point of wholesale of any industry is to sell in volume, and sell at a substantial discount, which leaves margin for others to profit, thus building a distributor model.The problem with that and real estate, and the MLS system, is MLS tries to get the seller the highest value possible, which contradicts the core concept of wholesale.I think the only way this would work is with banks, and they will probably want the whole saler, and the agent to be one in the same for their convenience, which you have, which is advantageous to you.
