One of the challenges of beginning wholesalers is they do not have a buyer's list.

Also, newer wholesalers only see about half of their contracts get dispo'd and closed (sometimes less) because of the reason just mentioned or a lack of Buyers to dispo to. 

Again, buyer truly beware, I'll be around in 3 years when everyone is dumping these properties because they are so underwater and I can buy them without the burden of suncoast waiting to sting me.

Unlike some buyers, I ALWAYS go look at the properties before the sale and discovered that the vacant lot had an active railroad track on it and therefore was unbuildable, and would remain unbuildable until the railroad removed their track. 

Jaron Walling said something that caught my attention, "search for and buy a bad roof, leverage it during the negotiation"....especially of the property has been sitting on the market longer than normal for the current market, a "bad roof" might be a gift from the real estate genie.My point is this: get good at estimating and fixing a bad roof (or any particular problem found with most houses that sit on the market longer) and you'll get comfortable buying/fixing properties that scare off other buyers. 

I’m not a first time home buyer but wife would qualify, I want to put down less than 10%. 

Plus there are many buyers out there.

In other words, I'd hope to pay market price to rent the place out so the home buyers can get an optimal but realistic return on their investment.So my goal to make this appealing to me, as a potential renter, is to also be one of the buyers.

I am currently selling a 16-unit apartment complex, the first one to sell since 1998 when this buyer bought this one!

North Park buyers might love a historic Craftsman with modern touches, while La Jolla buyers want high-end finishes and panoramic views.
