State Requirements

Real estate wholesaling is not a new concept. However, the practice, regulation, and public perception of wholesaling have changed significantly in recent years. For real estate professionals navigating a market where wholesaling is becoming more popular and increasingly problematic, understanding its legal, ethical, and professional implications is more important than ever.

This three-hour course provides a straightforward examination of wholesaling: how it operates, when it crosses legal and ethical boundaries, and why it faces greater scrutiny from lawmakers and the public. You’ll examine how some investors use wholesaling as a legitimate and transparent strategy to build wealth, while others exploit it to bypass licensing requirements, mislead sellers and buyers, and disrupt housing stability, particularly in vulnerable communities.

Whether you are new to wholesaling, advising clients involved, or simply looking to avoid legal issues, this course is designed for you.

Course highlights include:

  • Foundational principles of wholesaling
  • Strategic uses of wholesaling
  • State laws and licensing implications of wholesaling
  • Red flags to indicate predatory wholesaling practices
  • When wholesaling becomes illegal
  • Ethical wholesaling
  • Collateral damage of wholesaling
  • Legal and civil penalties
  • Effects of predatory wholesaling on housing market
  • Real-world cases, interactive scenarios, and activities to understand wholesaling in your real estate practice
