Private investors are most definitely interested in wholesale deals.  A quick turn over of their money with a high profit is actually the best scenario, especially when the risk is low.  If for example an invest lends you $50K, and you flip the property for a profit of $20K in 2 months, and lets say you agreed to pay you investor a fixed 5% of his investment.  Then the investor would recieve $105,000 in 2 months.  That's a 30% annualized return.  Your investor would be delighted.
