Most wholesalers think assignments are simpler. Carly Stagge thinks they're quietly capping your business. After switching to double closes, her team's average fee jumped by $8,000 per deal. The money wasn't even the biggest benefit.

Carly is a director at Vertigo Real Estate Ventures, operating across Colorado, San Diego, Raleigh, and South Florida. She's also the founder of FlipFund Capital, a transactional funding company built by active wholesalers who got tired of how complicated and expensive the alternatives were.
In this episode, she breaks down what assignments are actually costing you and why the operators scaling fastest have already made the switch.

- How double closing gives you the ability to re-trade when a buyer tries to back out (assignments legally cut that option off)
- Why serious wholesalers are leaving $50,000+ on the table by capping their own fees to keep assignments clean
- Why public records quietly become a lead source when you double close
- How to prove deal volume to agents and sellers when every assignment leaves zero paper trail
- Whether to double close every deal or just the big ones
- What transactional funding costs and how to think about the ROI
