    Real Estate Wholesaler<\/h1>\n

    Wholesaling real estate is one of the best ways to get started investing in real estate if you don\u2019t have any money to put down on a property. Remember earlier when I talked about contacting local wholesalers to find cheap houses to flip. Well, what exactly is a real estate wholesaling. A wholesaler basically acts as a middle man in the transaction. They try to link up a buyer and a seller and take a cut for themselves by marking up the price.<\/p>\n

    Real estate wholesaling is one of the best real estate careers for making money quickly. Here\u2019s how to wholesale real estate properties: find a distressed property whose owners are motivated to sell quickly convince the property owner to sell the property and sign your contract assess the property\u2019s renovation needs and ARV (after repair value) find a buyer and sell the property for profits some confuse the wholesaling strategy with the fix-and-flip strategy in real estate, but these are different real estate careers. First of all, a house flipper buys distressed properties and does the renovations. A real estate wholesaler, on the other hand, does not. Wholesalers need to know the renovations costs and ARV so they can give these numbers to investors and show them the potential profit the property will bring them.<\/p>\n

    This term is quite the opposite of house flipping in terms of how the process works. A real estate wholesaler will buy and sell houses within a short period of time, without making repairs, renovations, etc. Actually, they don\u2019t even \u201cbuy\u201d the home at all. Wholesalers find deals, get a house under contract, and then essentially sell the deal to buy the home (or option\/contract) to another investor. Basically, you do all the legwork to find deals, then pass them to other investors for a fee.<\/p>\n
