Best Wholesale Real Estate Websites for Buying and Selling Deals
The wholesale real estate market has moved online. Whether you are a buyer looking for discounted investment properties or a wholesaler trying to sell your contracts, knowing the right websites gives you a significant edge. This guide covers the best platforms for both sides of wholesale transactions in 2026.
We split this into two sections: websites where you can find wholesale deals to buy, and platforms where you can market your own wholesale deals to buyers.
Part 1: Where to find wholesale deals to buy
InvestorLift Marketplace
Access: Free for buyers / $500+/month for sellers
InvestorLift operates the largest wholesale deal marketplace in the country. Wholesalers pay enterprise-level subscriptions to list their deals, and buyers can browse and submit offers for free. The platform claims millions of registered buyers, which means deals from InvestorLift sellers get significant exposure.
For buyers, the advantage is volume: hundreds of new wholesale deals posted daily across major metros. The drawback is competition — you are bidding against thousands of other buyers who see the same inventory. Speed matters on this platform. Deals that are priced well get multiple offers within hours.
Best for: Active cash buyers who want a consistent flow of wholesale deals and can move quickly on offers.
ConnectedInvestors
Access: Free tier available / premium from $99/month
ConnectedInvestors is a marketplace and social network for real estate investors. Wholesalers post deals with property details, photos, and asking prices. Buyers can browse by market, property type, and price range. The free tier provides limited access; premium unlocks full deal details and direct messaging.
The quality of deals on ConnectedInvestors varies widely. Some are well-analyzed with professional marketing packages. Others are low-effort posts with minimal information. Treat each listing as a starting point for your own due diligence, not a finished analysis.
Best for: Buyers who want to browse wholesale inventory across multiple markets from a single platform.
Facebook Groups
Access: Free
Facebook Groups remain the most active informal marketplace for wholesale deals. Dozens of city-specific groups ("Houston Wholesale Deals," "DFW Cash Buyer Network," "Atlanta REI Deals") have thousands of members posting and browsing deals daily. The format is simple: wholesalers post property photos, address (or general area), price, and ARV. Interested buyers comment or DM.
The advantages are zero cost, immediate access, and local market focus. The disadvantages are inconsistent deal quality, no standardized format, and the need to sift through spam and low-quality posts. Join multiple groups in your target markets and check them daily.
Best for: Local cash buyers who want free access to wholesale deal flow in specific markets.
Craigslist (Real Estate > By Owner)
Access: Free
Craigslist may seem outdated, but wholesalers still post deals in the "Real Estate by Owner" section, often with headlines like "investor special," "handyman special," or "below market value." The format is basic and the quality is inconsistent, but deals do exist here — especially in smaller markets where more sophisticated platforms have less penetration.
Search for your target market and filter by keywords related to wholesale deals. Expect to wade through noise. The few legitimate deals you find may have less competition than deals on dedicated platforms.
Best for: Buyers who are willing to sift through noise for occasionally uncovered deals with less competition.
Deal Run Marketplace
Access: Free for buyers
Deal Run's marketplace features professionally presented wholesale deals with full marketing packages: property photos, comp analysis, repair estimates, and financial projections. Buyers can browse deals, submit offers, request showings, and ask questions directly through the platform. Each deal page includes the data buyers need to evaluate the opportunity without asking the wholesaler for basic information.
Best for: Buyers who want well-documented wholesale deals with professional marketing packages and easy offer submission.
Auction.com and Hubzu
Access: Free to browse
Online auction platforms sell bank-owned (REO) and foreclosure properties that are functionally similar to wholesale deals — below-market prices, as-is condition, cash or hard money required. The difference is you are buying from a bank, not a wholesaler, and the auction process has specific rules and timelines.
These are not technically wholesale deals, but the buyer profile is the same: cash investors looking for discounted properties. If you buy wholesale deals, you should also monitor auction sites for additional inventory in your target markets.
Best for: Cash buyers who want to supplement their wholesale deal flow with auction inventory.
Part 2: Where to market your wholesale deals
Building professional deal pages
Before choosing a platform, you need a professional way to present your deals. A text message saying "3/2 in Houston, $85K, ARV $150K" is not going to move a serious buyer to action. Professional buyers — especially those doing volume — expect to see photos, comp data, repair estimates, and financial projections before they will even consider an offer.
Deal Run's marketing package feature creates professional deal pages automatically from your deal data. Upload photos, confirm the comp analysis and repair estimates, set your asking price, and publish. Each deal gets a shareable link with an integrated offer form, showing request form, and inquiry form.
Your own buyer list (email and SMS)
The most valuable marketing channel for any wholesaler is your own buyer list. These are investors who have opted in to receive your deals — either by buying from you previously, attending your events, or joining through your website. Email and SMS blasts to a warm buyer list consistently outperform any marketplace platform.
Building a buyer list takes time, which is why software that helps you identify and skip trace active investors near your deals is so valuable. Every search adds potential buyers to your database. Over six to twelve months of active wholesaling, you build a list that becomes your primary competitive advantage.
InvestorLift (seller side)
Cost: Starting at $500/month
For wholesalers doing enough volume to justify the cost, InvestorLift provides the largest buyer reach. List your deal and it is immediately visible to their registered buyer base. The platform handles offer collection, buyer verification, and basic pipeline management. The enterprise tiers include advanced features like buyer ranking and pool sharing across teams.
The barrier is price. At $500+/month, InvestorLift is out of reach for most solo wholesalers and small teams. It makes financial sense when you are closing multiple deals per month and the buyer reach consistently generates offers.
Facebook Groups (seller side)
Cost: Free
Posting your deals in cash buyer Facebook groups is the most common free marketing method for wholesalers. Create a simple post with photos, property details, and your asking price. Tag the market in your post title. Include an easy way for buyers to reach you (phone, DM, or link to your deal page).
Tips for effective Facebook deal posts:
- Lead with the best exterior photo, not a text graphic
- Include the key numbers: asking price, ARV, estimated repairs, and monthly rent
- Link to a professional deal page rather than putting all details in the post
- Post at times when buyers are active (early morning, lunch, early evening)
- Follow each group's posting rules to avoid getting removed
Your own website
Cost: Free to $100+/month
Having your own website establishes credibility and gives buyers a place to find your current inventory, sign up for your buyer list, and submit offers. Website builders like Carrot (designed for real estate investors), WordPress, and Squarespace make it possible to set up a basic site in a day.
The key pages for a wholesaler website: current deals (updated regularly), buyer signup form, about/credibility page, and contact information. Do not spend months perfecting a website before you have deals to sell — a simple site with real inventory beats a beautiful site with no deals.
BiggerPockets Marketplace
Cost: Free with BiggerPockets account
BiggerPockets allows members to post properties for sale in the marketplace section. The audience is already composed of real estate investors, making it a relevant channel for wholesale deals. Listings are basic, but the engaged community means your deal reaches qualified buyers.

| InvestorLift | $500+/mo | Largest | Varies | Fast |
| Facebook Groups | Free | Large, untargeted | Varies | Medium |
| ConnectedInvestors | $0-99/mo | Medium | Varies | Medium |
| Own website | $0-100/mo | SEO-dependent | Highest | Slow to build |

| Craigslist | Free | Low, local | Low | Slow |
The multi-channel approach
The most successful wholesalers do not rely on a single marketing channel. They blast their deals across multiple platforms simultaneously: email to their buyer list, post in three to five Facebook groups, list on marketplace platforms, and share the deal page link via text to their best buyers. The cost of posting to multiple channels is near zero; the incremental exposure generates more offers and faster closes.
Start by building your buyer list with every deal. Even if you sell through a Facebook group today, those buyers should be in your database for next time. Over twelve months, your buyer list becomes your most valuable business asset — more valuable than any single marketing channel.
