@Carlos Aquino

Yes earnest money is typically, but not always, non refundable on assignments and is used to lock the contract in place. I would definitely continue to educate yourself about the transaction aspect of things in and out because you will get taken advantage of in the wholesale world if you aren’t on your toes.
