Mom is an septuagenarian and not up for doing this exclusively over the Internet.I wish I could say she could talk to her property manager... but she continues to do all of it herself.I apologize in advance, you may see this query posted in a few forums.

Do you know the best online retailer where we can buy discount gift cards.

Is there some way to word that on his "exclusivity" form, or am I stuck with him for every houses I consider in the 2 month period I've specified?

Here are my thoughts so far:1) Kind of obvious...find a new w-2 job and close as planned.2) Figure out a private money situation to act as the bank and close with cash (The lender has a $10k discount in place if you use their "in house" lender, so circumventing this coud potentially cost me an additional $10k on the purchase price)3) See if there is a way to market and sell or assign my existing contract to a new buyer and possibly flip it for a profit since I have equity in it.

This happens when you purchase at a not-low-enough discount to the retail price.  

I don´t discount the value of a spouse, and my wife is my best teammate, but that´s hardly a prerequisite to REI.

Learn which neighborhoods command a premium and which will have discounted prices.As another piece of advice for a new wholesaler, I would also recommend being able to at least ballpark rehab/renovation costs.

Then yes, get an exclusive buyer agreement signed with him before doing any work.

The numbers worked and after a lot of internal debate, I had to logic myself into a decision: If I bought these 2, I was going to eventually refi and use that money to buy more SFHs anyway BUT the price on these 6 as a package was way better than I'd get in another year on an individual SFH.I was getting a Costco-sized discount for buying in bulk and instead of shying away from the chance, I pooled together the money from friends, family, a HELOC, etc. and went for it.

The difference in premium is only about $250/yr so I am not that worried about the discount.
