On the fence about a deal...

Wholesalers....

What do you do when you feel as if you could get a property under contract that is really, really close to being a deal, but in some instances may be a bit under your criteria requirements what you would normally contract?

For example, without being too specific, you can get the house under contract for X amt, but the seller is firm, no way of getting it cheaper. At the sellers price it is very very close to being a deal but not a clear cut 100% deal.

Should you take the chance and tie up the sellers property not knowing for sure if your investors will snatch it up? Or should you pass, save your reputation (if you can't sell it), and wait for many of the other good deals to come along?

Thanks, just wondering what everyone's input is.
