How do you turn a bird dog deal into a wholesale deal?

:pup: Can this be done? Thats where i am at right now.I have 2 (maybe 3) active deals being reviewed By 2 different buyers and two different sellers.I found properties my buyer/investors were looking for and now i am kind of apprehensive because of the whole uncertainty of local real estate laws (even though the sellers and buyers are in seperat states) concerning finders fees (bird dogs).. No written contracts were exchanged at least on my part yet and a couple of the buyers are sure they want to close a couple of these properties.Is there anyway i can turn this into a wholesale deal at this point? Since there don't seem to be any local or federal laws preventing real estate wholesaling.I'd hate to give up on a good commission that has been offered to me-wouldnt you? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, Dan
