Post: Wholesale profits = Down payments?

@Roy N. 

Thanks for the response.  I actually thought I read on a blog that a person bought property and without fixing it, resold it to a rehabber.  Im pretty sure he specifically stated... "I flipped a property to a rehabber without doing any work to it", so I started thinking they were two different things in a sense.

@Roy N. 

I have read/heard in the past that flipping property is pretty much the same as wholesaling vs rehabbing. Meaning... to wholesale a property is to contract and assign the property to another/investor... to flip a house is to buy a property and close and sell it to another/investor without fixing it up. Is that correct or somewhat correct?

Sorry to butt in :)... I too am new and have a question.  The way I understand it, even if you dont do a double close, you still have to close with the new buyer. Therefore, you still need to deal with a title company.  Am I correct or did I misunderstand you?

Post: advantages to being licensed when wholesaling

So would it be fair to say that a person could wait to get a license until they get the hang of how the business works, but still start out wholesaling? My goal is to make real estate investing a career, but still a lot to learn in order to reach my goal.

@Brian K.  Thank you for the advice. I am doing a crazy amount of reading and finally networking on here.  Being on BP has been a great experience so far and I believe it will continue. Its great to know that so many people, new or experienced, are so willing to share their knowledge and experiences with everyone to learn from.
