This strategy may seem like the perfect and ultimate model for hitting your financial goals all while enjoying the investment journey.

You already know that wholesaling is a great way to venture into real estate as an investor without a lot of cash in your hands.

This emerging co-wholesaling strategy provides a way to make this path even easier and more attainable than venturing out and doing it on your own.

Though, just like most other strategies in real estate, there are things you need to know beneath the surface about this attractive business model.
