New Wholesaler: How To Ask Local Investors The Price Of Rehab

Hi guys,

I am a new wholesaler that began Driving for Dollar this past week and had good success getting leads. Im not calling these leads because I dont know how to estimate rehab costs. I am reading J scotts book but I need local costs of my area so i can start calling and negotiating on a price with sellers. 

At a meetup last week I met a local flipper that was super cool and found out he is a cash buyer. He gave me his card and even bought my beer! I really think I can benefit him since he is #1 on my cash buyer list but is it too much to ask for a rundown on contractors and avg rehab costs in the area? What is the nest way to go about this?
