Real Estate Wholesaling

Contract properties and assign them to end buyers — no renovation required.

Wholesaling is a low-capital entry point into real estate investing. Instead of buying and renovating, a wholesaler puts a property under contract at a favorable price, then assigns that contract to an end buyer — typically a flipper or landlord — for an assignment fee.

Success in wholesaling depends on two things: finding motivated sellers and maintaining a strong network of ready buyers. Jonathan Fitzgerald brings deep market relationships and Central Florida deal flow that help wholesalers connect the right property with the right buyer.

How It Works

1

Locate Motivated Sellers

Identify distressed, inherited, or time-sensitive properties where sellers value speed and certainty over top price.

2

Secure the Contract

Put the property under a purchase contract that includes the right to assign the deal to another buyer.

3

Find Your End Buyer

Tap into a network of cash buyers, flippers, and landlords actively looking for Central Florida inventory.

4

Assign & Get Paid

Assign the contract to the end buyer and collect your assignment fee at closing — without ever owning the property.

Key Benefits

Low Capital Required

Wholesaling requires little upfront money compared to buying and renovating.

No Renovation Risk

You never take on construction, contractors, or holding costs.

Fast Turnaround

Deals can close in weeks, generating quicker cash flow than flips or rentals.

Market Education

Wholesaling teaches you to analyze deals — a foundation for every other strategy.

Important Considerations

Florida requires that you actually hold an equitable interest (a valid contract) in the property you market — understand the legal boundaries.

Your reputation depends on delivering deals that actually close for your buyers.

A deep, active buyers list is your most valuable asset — build it constantly.

Assignment fees are taxable income — keep clean records and consult a tax professional.
