Well, it's always the few that mess things up for the majority.The issue is the lack of an education and the assumption that gurus provide an education.There is nothing wrong with wholesaling so long as you do it ethically and in compliance with applicable laws.Since wholesaling is walking the narrow line of what Realtors do and the activity requires a license, yes, I'd say that effects the general reputation.I'd think those that build a business model around this strategy may have a hard time in most communities as it is seen as selling or facilitating a sale of a property you don't own.

Even in Mayberry, Opie was caught vandalizing city property by using a stolen apple to break a street light.

When the equity markets get rattled and investors fear a lack of good alternatives, you see a flight to quality (safety) into things like gold and U.S.

Since I assigning I am not sure if the attorney has to1) prepare for closing2) obtain title work (I can as the cost it's minimal but not necessary)3) preparation and review of closing documents4) Representation at closing.5) recording of the documents6) obtaining the title policy.She also went on to say that once we are out of attorney review the assignment is complete.I am not too thrilled by her lack of knowledge of Assignment of Contract.The service I require is1) review purchase contract in attorney review stage2) once out of attorney review, I want her to draft an Assignment of contract and send it to the buyer's attorney and collect the deposit for the assignment.3) buyer will then conduct his inspection and if all goes will schedule a close with the seller.4) At closing, the buyer will wire or send a certified check towards the balance of the assignment fee, I do not thing my attorneyneeds to be at the closing.

They have a lot they can teach you if you get to know them and you show a little respect for them.An email is totally impersonal and shows a lack of respect for the bank and the banker.  

I have yet to flip/rehab (not for lack of trying, have not come across right deal yet), but would second recommendation on J Scott's two books.
