A wholesale deal shouldn’t sit on the market for six months.
But that happens all the time.
Why?
Because some wholesalers put a property under contract BEFORE they really know who’s going to buy it.
They post in Facebook groups.
They hope someone responds.
And then they find out their numbers were wrong.
Maybe the price is too high.
Maybe the ARV was overestimated.
Maybe the buyer pool they thought existed… doesn’t.
In this $28,000 wholesale deal, our buyer was already pre-qualified and vetted.
That’s not an accident.
We believe you should know your buyer, understand their criteria, and know your numbers BEFORE you lock up the deal.
Because the buyers often know the comps better than the wholesaler.
Get the numbers wrong, and the deal can die.
