Why have wholesalers; can't the buy/fix/flip or hold investor do it?
If the job of the wholesaler is to broker the deal between seller and buyer, couldn't the buyer find the same deal and save the assignment fee?
- What special skill does wholesalers have?
- Is there rule of thumb for wholesalers to make the deal? A formula?
- Wouldn't wholesalers be in the category of loan sharks; preying on the "motivated".
- I assume they have some special skill that does provide a service to the motivated? No disrespect from honest wholesalers; just trying to understand.
- Why chose assignment form over double close/escrow (hiding the profit of the wholesale)?
- What happens if the wholesaler doesn't find a buyer? Just lose ernest money?
I know some of these are basic. Please help me understand. Thank you!
