WHOLESALING QUESTION

If someone calls me who is in foreclosure, and I want to do a short sale, but the lender requires a “proof of funds letter” for which I cannot produce because it’s not my money that’s buying the property - because I am wholesaling - how does that work?

If you cannot produce a proof of funds letter, then you cannot do the shortsale. That’s just part of that business.

I don’t really understand the “it’s not my money that’s buying the property - because I am wholesaling.” What does wholesaling have to do with the fact that you have to have funds to close the deal?

I am from Mars, ok?

I am new to this wholesaling thing and have gotten it all confused. Please disregard my question. Thanks just the same.

Raj, thanks. It’s me. I am confused. But I think I’ve got it now. :rolleyes

Get a proof of funds letter from a hard money lender. With them, your credit or assets is not an issue.
