Wholesaling real estate has become a popular investment strategy for both new and experienced real estate investors. However, it is often preferred by newbies because, as a short-term strategy, it requires little in terms of capital investments – just an earnest money deposit that is held in escrow until the transaction is complete.

But, like all real estate investing, there are pros and cons to the practice and market factors that must be understood to be successful.

The final buyer is known in the biz as the end buyer.

Real estate wholesale deals provide new investors the...

Successful real estate investors understand the concepts that define the real estate market’s cycles. This knowledge is pivotal in identifying emerging investment opportunities as the market enters each stage of its cycle.

The significant appreciation that the United States’ real estate market has experienced in the recent past is best understood by its entrance into the second stage of the cycle – Expansion - somewhere near the beginning of the 2020 pandemic.

It is noted that the market, at this time, bucked conventional wisdom as most world events (like Covid) that impact the global economy negatively ultimately impacts real estate in the same direction.

Real estate wholesaling is a strategy that is often a preferred investment strategy – especially for new investors because it provides a viable, legal investment technique that only mandates the provision of an earnest money deposit – which is relatively insignificant for real estate.

Real estate wholesaling is an investment strategy that has become popular in the current real estate marketplace. For experienced real estate investors, wholesaling real estate deals is certainly not a new investment technique but a strategy that aligns with the current market showing great appreciation. Currently, the national average appreciation rate in the United States is 14.5%, which is in deep contrast from 2019’s national average appreciation rate in the United States of 4%.

Historically, appreciation rates tend to follow significant economic events. The table below indicates a few recent economic events – which generated varying appreciation rates -

Note that a recession does not always result in the same rate or even the direction of housing prices.
