Why Wholesalers and Investors Should Get Their License

If you are a wholesaler or working with one, or just researching this niche in real estate [chicago wholesale property] for yourself, you will come across many uninformed individuals who will tell you that having a realtors license is needed to wholesale. These people are wrong and misinformed. They just don’t want you to promote yourself as a real estate advisor or consultant unless your licensed, which is what they are trying to tell you. Just remember this, as a wholesaler you are acting as a buyer and any contract is assignable to another person. Simple as that.

Five Tips to Know When Presenting a Contract for a Wholesale Deal

Wholesaling Real Estate: Five tips on putting a wholesale deal under contract.

* Be aware of who will be looking at the contract. In general there should be 2 parties, the seller and the attorney. If they want to involve another party such as a realtor who is a friend, make sure you get their contact information before hand so you can establish rapport and answer any questions they may have directly. If the attorney is not familiar with real estate transactions, or wholesaling, just explain that it is all standard and that you will close quickly. Also note that if the contract will be seen by a realtor, having a $10 dollar deposit might not be enough and they will try to kill the deal (and get the business for themselves), which is why you want to speak with them before they see anything. As a wholesaler, it is very important that all parties who influence the seller are on the same page.
