// Key Lessons

1. Let buyers capture the sweat equity and share the wealth: Pass on properties with improvement potential to create win-win scenarios for buyers and sellers.
2. Wholetailing bridges wholesaling and retailing: Sell properties with some upside potential and minimal work to attract DIYers or homeowners looking for equity.
3. Sweat equity isn't just physical work—it's strategic value creation: Every project, whether for a flip or a hold, requires planning to maximize gains.
4. Simplify to amplify: Selling without extensive renovations can open doors for quicker sales and reduce risk from unknown repairs.
