If someone is looking to get retail value, I always tell them its best to list with an agent.

I will see a 18,000sq ft retail strip center brand new off the corner with just the shell.

Again broadcasting a number, especially one that could be inflated, will reduce interest.If the wholesale deal is really a retail play (very light rehab or no rehab at all), then I might put price out their because that is expected by this target market.

Is it possible to do a double close (using a transactional funder to buy) on a property that requires the retail buyer to get a 203k loan.

Less seem to be retailing their rehabbed properties.

I can't hack the boss or the pace much longer.Don

Are you trying to wholesale the property quick or do a full rehab and sell at the retail level??

.:)Anyway, I was told to do something else besides short sales to make quick cash and not waste time when the banks are making it very difficult to close deals.I am in the new york area where properties sell for $350k-Up since most are 2-3 families.I just want to know the truth before I waste more time and money with the following questions:1) If banks are not approving short sales at 50-60% so where is the money then if I can not get approved for this amount so I can flip to a investor.2) Cash investors are looking to buy around at 65% so how the hell do I make money then3) Should I focus and sell my short sales to retail home buyers instead of cash investors but I thought the move was to focus on cash investors for quick sales...:(4) Is wholesaling short sales to investors dead, if not then how can I still make money from my hard work of building a cash buyers list of investors.5) What kind of problems will i have trying to sell my short sale approved properties to retail buyers.6) I am thinking now of building a retail buyers list, what is the best way to do this since I think this may be the move to max out my profit from my short sales7) THE TRUTH PLEASEThe truth now....

To make a blanket statement and say YES and investor would do this deal doesn't make sense.This is the same rational when people equate foreclosures to DEALS.A deal can be in the form of many different types of properties or seller motivations.Also depends if you want to wholesale it,whole tail it,or sell retail,or keep it in your portfolio as a rental.

If you're paying retail, that is, the price it would bring on the MLS, you're paying too much.
