As a wholesaler, I am a self-represented investor, and as long as I disclose in my cover letter to the seller that I am a licensed agent, self-representing, that I have a financial interest in the transaction, and that I am not representing anyone else in the transaction, I can do wholesale contracts.  

Where else can you buy a 30k house and collect $2000 Gross?

Has anyone else been doing this?

Anybody else who can share similar experience?

If you can refi with someone else, go that route.If it's 1 year to refi with anyone, or what? 

Anything else I should look out for? 

As everyone else has stated, there are plenty of valuable resources you can get from local organizations.

You’re at your job and someone else is on the phone or at a showing.

Then if you disappear or mess up the deal, they just go record it if they need to take possession. 

If anything else, make sure to be conservative on your numbers, know the market for what you can realistically get in rents and don't force the numbers to make the deal look appealing.
