Wholesaling fit

Greenville is a mid-tier wholesale market right now — disciplined operators can build a book; tourists will get squeezed.

TL;DR — the data signals
  • 73.9% of sales below list — sellers negotiating
  • Median DOM 21 days — speed market, off-market only
  • Sale-to-list 0.976 — buyer market
  • Buyer mix: mixed flippers + landlords

Wholesaling in Greenville starts with one question: how often are sellers leaving money on the table? In this market, the answer is "consistently." 73.9% of closed sales land below list, with a sale-to-list ratio of 0.976 — clear evidence that sellers are negotiating and motivated-seller direct mail has room to convert.

The lists that should produce here, based on the current data:

- Price-cut targets — when 73.9% of homes close below list, price-cut filters surface owners already psychologically resigned to discount

Disposition matters as much as sourcing. Greenville buyers right now lean mixed — neither rents nor appreciation dominate. Maintain a buyers list with both flippers and landlords; segment your dispositions accordingly.

Net: spread is tight but real here. The arithmetic that needs to clear is the same everywhere — purchase + assignment fee + buyer's rehab + buyer's profit ≤ 70-75% of ARV — but the room to find that spread depends on whether sellers will negotiate. The data above says they will in Greenville.
