Fixer upper gets listed for $250k. I offer $180k with 3% commission — I’m a licensed agent and my company is the buyer. Plan is to wholesale it for $190k. Needs $75k in work and will be worth $320k after repairs. Listing agent says too low. 4 weeks later our CRM notifies me the list price dropped to $225k. I follow up. Agent still says $180k is too low. Another month goes by. CRM notifies me again — price drops to $210k. I follow up. Agent says they think it’ll work. I draft the offer, send it over, and it gets accepted. We price the deal at $190k and sell it — signed contract and EMD in hand. While we’re still in DD, I tell the agent my buyer needs a $20k price reduction to move forward, but they’re ready to wire EM and waive the rest of DD. Seller meets us halfway. Price drops to $170k. We make $25k. That’s the exact play we run wholesaling MLS properties.








Now he realizes why it was $60,000
