Contractor(s) walking my first wholesale deal

[Deangelo Mack]

Hello BP family. Is it uncommon to ask a contractor(s) to walk me through my first or second deal just so I can kinda get a feel for eyeballing things that need to be repaired? Ive been told not to pay for an inspector. I just dont see how a contractor is willing to do this for free. Should i offer he/she lunch to make it a even trade OR should I call a hand full of contractors in the market im investing in to get an average repair cost? Thanks guys
