Wholesaler and Investor Relationship.

[Brandon Gamblin]

Question for investors (wholesalers, fix and flip and rental):

Once a wholesaler gets a property under contract, can someone describe to me what the wholesaler to investor relationship looks like? I know it's different from every set of investor and wholesaler, but I'm just talking in general (and you can be specific as well).

What is your personal experience in dealing in this type of relationship? Does the investor ask the wholesaler to reduce the price? Is the investor’s most logical move to go to the property and do a walk through with his contractor and estimate repairs?

What might run through an investor’s head when evaluating a wholesale deal? 

All in all, I'm trying to get an understanding on the ethics of this relationship. Opinions from both fix & flip investors and wholesalers are welcomed.

Is the investor’s most logical move to go to the property and do a walk through with his contractor and estimate repairs? Run comps first, to see if there's a chance its a real deal, then go inspect and estimate repairs
