Title check?

[TONYMAN]

Has any other wholesaler done title checks before presenting a property to him/her? Is it common? **and also** something that just popped in my head- do wholesalers ask for earnest money from the investor buyer?

It's definitely a good idea to do a title check.  If there are problems, it makes you look like you don't know what you are selling.  Yes, get earnest money you want the buyer to have something in the game, otherwise what is there incentive to follow through and close.

I see thank you for your input!

what's a number one shouldn't go over for an earnest money deposit?
