I'm fine if the wholesale deals they get in Katy are few and far between since we have several other productive marketing avenues, but I'd like to find a few reputable wholesalers to work with and get tossed on their lists for homes that meet my criteria.The whole meet and greet in person thing to explain the process annoys me because it means driving into Houston to hear something they could tell me over the phone, but if that's what I have to do, I will.
