Explain completely and honestly to the seller what you are doing, avoid any actions that constitute unlicensed brokerage, and actually learn something about real estate, and no one will have any problem with you.Not even me, and I am as "anti-wholesaler" as it gets on this site.Is it possible to be completely honest with sellers about what you are doing?
