Is MiddleMan a good LLC name to have as a Real Estate Wholesaler?
I hear that when you create a real estate business name, you want it to describe the service you do for your customer. I think this is a pretty good name. The only draw back is that I don't want everyone to know that I wholesale properties as an in between guy, most importantly not an RE Agent who doesn't know I'm assigning the properties to my end buyers. It also may not be wise for the sellers to know I'm assigning the property to someone, only that I have access to cash. Wouldn't I only want the BUYER to know?
Do you think it would be best for me to find a creative name that doesn't give away my intent as a "whole saler?"

I agree to an extent that selecting a name that says what you do can be beneficially, but the name you have chosen for a wholesale business is not only bad, it is dreadful. No offense, but you are taking one thing and mixing it with another. In wholesaling, you should be providing a service, you are not a "middleman" if you are doing it correctly, this yr name should reflect what you do in the form of the business as a whole and having anything with RE investments in the name is fully functional.
