Hi BP members,
Hope all is well. I would like your input on how one can go about selling a property quick or getting in touch with a wholesaler(s) who can get it done. I have a family member with 2 properties (SFH) in Beaumont, TX and a 20 acre wooded lot with a barn in Deweyville, TX, motivated to sell. I advised they shouldn't go about doing MLS listing because it would take time and for the properties they have I believe an investor would benefit more from them. Placing them on MLS would just attract the not so serious buyers.
I am curious to know what steps you would take to get in touch with the right investors and/or wholesalers to get these properties sold quickly. Do I put them on Craigslist? Attend a REI meeting and put it out there?

I can't think of any reason not to put it in the MLS. The more people who know of the listing the more demand and the higher price you'll get. Going through a wholesaler means you're giving up 20-30% compared to a retail sale.
