@Eric Gamble It seems like it would be prudent to compile some (based on what your strategy is) quick & easy screen out parameters...ie, in said desirable area, if 3 bedroom houses are generally the most in demand by buyers who would buy your wholesale deals, start there...that kind of thing...no 2 beds, no 4 beds, etc.

I am a Realtor in PA who also wholesales.

So you can have a smoother transition from wholesale to rehab.

Does anyone know of a good contractor and wholesaler that they know off here in AZ?

I have read a bit on BP forums about wholesaling, listened  to many podcasts where investors mention wholesalers being a good resource for finding properties.

Investment Info:Single-family residence wholesale investment.

Looking for any wholesalers that have potential properties in Bakersfield, CA.

I am not an agent nor a wholesaler but I have researched enough to know that it varies a lot state to state and you most likely want to consult a real estate attorney in your state prior to doing so.As far as I know, it is completely possible to wholesale as an agent, but they are held to a higher standard and as you alluded to as require certain disclosures such as the fact that you are an agent.

Double closings without disclosing what you are doing is not legal in CA,(maybe I'm wrong) a majority of wholesalers out here will assign contracts using their LLC and/ or assignee, for that you can use any title company you want. 

We provide investors with wholesale, rehab, and asset management services under one program to allow for the most efficient investment process.
