Newbie here, need wholesaling advice.
Hi there BP'ers!
I am working on getting my first wholesale deal. I found a 3bd 1ba house that is 1300 sq ft. Seller bought it 1 year ago from a friend that was going through a divorce for $50K. He said he has done about $13-14K in repairs since he bought it and needs about $3K in kitchen upgrades and replace 3 windows. He is asking $64K. I have looked at comps in the area that have sold in the last 6 months and they are from $110K-$160K. I have not walked the property yet as seller is out of town until next week. He does not live in the property so it is just sitting. He says he is open to offers but would like to make some of his money back at least. From what he says over the phone it doesn't sound like it needs many repairs so I estimated $10K in repairs until I can get in there and walk it. I am most confused on the math part of the deal... Saying my ARV is $110,000, offering him $55-60K and asking $5K for my assignment. Does that sound accurate or like a good deal the buyer can profit from?
