I'm new to buying wholesale properties but I would think it would be easier to buy wholesale properties from motivated sellers in a pre-foreclosure or handy man special than a bank owned property? 

For now, I have a few things I am trying to sort out and would greatly appreciate your help!

Essentially, I was carrying so much stress around, my brain and body would sort of short circuit and I'd end up with a full on seizure - the whole enchilada with a crash to the floor and muscular spasms and contractions for anywhere from 15 to 90 minutes.  

What is the seller's motivation to sell within 3yrs of the purchase if the numbers are good?

It all depends on where you are and what sort of project you are trying to finance.

The challenge becoming an agent is that many motivated sellers contact you specifically because they do not want to work with a real estate agent.

So I have a motivated seller list I mailed to.

@Jose CintronThe rent to own business with Sellers or with tenant buyers take some talent and some knowledgeWholesaling is pretty straightforward as far as finding a motivated seller and finding a cash buyer and putting them togetherIf you're assigning lease options I highly recommend you get an RMLO to prequalify your tenant buyers as per the Dodd Frank and the safe actThis way most of your tenant Buyers will get mortgagesThere's also a component of credit improvement to help increase FICO scores if DTI is OKI know Massachusetts really well I grew up in Arlington@Mike Hurney@Shaun ReillyMike and Shaun are been around the block quite a few timesBeing licensed allows you to show houses and market house you do not own to tenant buyers in MassachusettsOnce  you get caught acting as a real estate agent, you get a fine and you get a record against the department of real estate in MassachusettsThen  it's difficult for you to get a licenseIf you want to buy on subject to or wrap mortgage without a license I think you're in the clear because you're acting as a principal and you're getting on titleIf you just get your license and act as a principal you're fine, and also disclose to the seller that you are licensed but acting as a principalIf you want to be hardheaded and do lease options without license, please don't complain when you can not do business in  Massachusetts or Rhode Island or Connecticut or New Hampshire or Vermont, New Englanders talk to each other

If the market cap gives a purchase price significantly below the asking price, you make a call to the broker or owner and see the motivation and why they are selling.
