I am a new real estate investor looking to wholesale. I Would appreciate any networking, buyers, or mentors in the Baton Rouge area. 

I could use some advice as to how people do repair estimates. i go by the 10,20,30 per sqft depending on condition of house? is this a good method? i would appreciate if there are better methods.

How do you usually estimate repairs?

i wanted opinions on how others get to their maximum allowable offer (MAO). I get three comps from redfin that are the closest in radius to average out an ARV. I then multiply by .7 and then subtract the repair estimate cost of $10-20 a sqft. I then take out my profit of about 5,000. Is this a good formula to go by? if not what formula are others using? is there a better way to get comps for free without MLS access?

My first act of marketing to "distressed sellers" was leading towards bandit signs. Is this a good start or is direct mail a better start in your opinion?

I am new to the business of wholesaling and would appreciate some tips relating to this topic relating to problems i may face and if so how to get past them.

thank you Anson.
