You can ask for referrals, but every property is different and while there are some scumbags out there, I'd like to believe most of the bad wholesaling is done from inexperience and not malicious.

It's too bad you said that a lot of leads died because of your inexperience because I offered to assist.

You do deals the sponsor and passive investors can feel good about and both hopefully get a handsome return on the back end exit.Some of these sellers and brokers LOVE newer syndicators or buyers because they can more easily manipulate them into paying more due to inexperience.

My my my.....inexperience peeps.  

You're argument and points wreak of inexperience and idealism.

Agent is new and inexperience so I don’t think agent knows how to list the property and solicit market.

Due to your inexperience in rehab.

having taken/passed a real estate licensure course doesn't change the inexperience, certainly not the knowledge in my opinion.In terms of "...less unsuspecting sellers getting ripped off," isn't that the grey area with wholesaling? 

Account ClosedYou will get some good feedback from the BP community - some will be more critical than others, but 99% of people on BP are just trying to help.I think due to your age and inexperience, you absolutely must do the two following things: a) educate yourself about EVERYTHING by reading books and listening to podcasts and b) network your @$$ off.
