BiggerPockets is an unbelievable asset if used correctly.Now with flipping all of my advice has come from my JV partner.

For those wholesalers that have access to the MLS, how? Did you get your real estate license, become a broker, team up with an agent, become an "assistant"? Was it worth it?And for those that go without the MLS, what ...

An alternative, or additional strategy would be to give him some vague details so he feels like he's gaining knowledge for the market. 

Alternatively, their websites may be able to provide you with some leads.I hope this helpsKirk

My future friends and business partners my name is Levon Darthard I'm brand new when it comes to real estate investing I really got into real estate when my brother Rayvon Darthard another member open my eyes up to this unbelievable opportunity this year.Im very excited about learning if anyone has any advice for me that would be great.

The wholesaler will pay for 2 closings if there are 2 closings:A sells to W and closes (1st set of closing costs), then W sells to B and closes (2nd set of closing costs).Alternatively, W could assign the contract to B, resulting in:A sells to B and W has no part in the deal and no closing costs (I don't think W has closing costs, but check the deal.)Jim.

I don't see how you have a better alternative.  

Our primary interest is fix-flip (with BRRRR as a VERY acceptable alternate exit strategy - our long term goal anyhow...).

@Rong LiuI tend to think along lines of Buy and Hold, if the property is in a desirable area, if the property is in a growth area, and if it is generating income.If the property doesn't meet those 3 criteria, and is in a declining area, a high crime area, or an area with poor schools, then I would sell and take the money and invest it elsewhere.However, there a third alternative to holding or selling, sort of a middle ground. 

Does anybody have any suggestions for alternatives lenders that might have more flexibility?
