The wholesaler is likely not licensed to sell real estate for the seller and so the assignment contract may be the only way that they can legally sell the contract (versus the property for the seller).As a licensed broker, I have done it where we renegotiated out of our contract with the seller and sold to a buyer with traditional financing simply as an agent.
