How does multiple wholesalers advertise same house?

[Jacob McCann]

Hello all!

When browsing local wholesalers websites It comes to my attention when I see a house in my area pop up for sale from a wholesaler I will see it listed on 3-4 other wholesalers websites also? There can only be 1 wholesaler with the property under contract, so are the others trying to advertise it for more and if they find a buyer also get cut a check? It’s often times fairly annoying as I will inquire about a property and the wholesaler will know nothing about it or can’t negotiate price or send me another wholesalers number to view property. Can someone give me some insight on the purpose of wholesalers advertising other wholesalers properties?
