hello everyone, for some months now wholesaling has been my thing.

Your way around it if it is fix and flip is to just do work that will increase the appraisal: improve curb appeal, enhance the kitchen or bath, or turn it into an open concept.

@Angela VestalI'm a little late to this thread but I suggest considering enhanced vinyl plank (EVP).

E-myth and Accounting books are next...Any advice or suggestions are appreciated.   

I'm not going to lie, I'm not sure that blogging is my thing right at this point, but I have been telling people about what I've been doing. 

My thing now what should my numbers look like so that know for this is a DEAL!! 

Here are some I would recommend (presuming you're looking to do buy and hold rentals):Personal Development: The Science of Getting Rich, Miracle Morning, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, Be Obsessed or Be AverageBusiness: The E-Myth, The Millionaire Fastlane, Good to Great, TractionReal Estate: The Millionaire Real Estate Investor, The Advanced Guide to Real Estate Investing,Finding and Funding Great Deals, The Book on Negotiating Real EstateI've also heard good things about How I Turned $1,000 into Five Million in Real Estate in My Spare Time and bought it but have yet to read it (as I'm not in rentals).

Long story short the seller accepted my offer and now the deal has to be approved my the bank.

The belief that the IRS will accept a few hundred dollars for the removal of a lien in which significant equity exists is based on a fantasy of urban myths or examples in which very unusual circumstances existed.In most cases, after a long drawn out process, the IRS may accept less than face value of the lien if the property sells for somewhere in the general range of its appraised value. 

I personally don't subscribe to the myth that find a deal and the money finds you..
