Is wholesaling legal in Indiana?

What Indiana law actually says

Indiana regulates the solicitation, not the assignment. An unlicensed person who solicits the sale or purchase of a single-family home is an 'unlicensed real estate solicitor.' Every solicitation — mail, sign, website, text, call, social media — must state 'This solicitation is not from a licensed real estate professional,' the solicitor's legal name, and the expected purchaser's legal name if different. If disclosed information changes before a written agreement, the homeowner must be updated first. The statute excludes licensees, builders, nonprofits, government, and buyers who intend to take title, record the deed, and keep the home as a residence or investment.

Do I need a license to wholesale in Indiana?

No. Indiana asks for written disclosure, not a license. Yes — but Indiana polices how you knock on the door. Its law is a solicitation regime: every mailer, text, sign, and post from an unlicensed buyer must carry a specific disclosure line and your legal name. The assignment itself is not the regulated act — the pitch is.

• The law excludes people who intend to take title, record the deed, and keep the home as a residence or investment — if that's you, document the intent.
