Fat chance of this getting through court.

@Josiah Sia Welcome to BP...I literally felt myself looking in the mirror reading your post .IT mgr, SA area, looking to pursue REI to fast track financial freedom...all of it.I’ve been around BP for a little over a month and consuming content like the fat kid at the buffet.

Wholesaling requires a great buyers list, fantastic deals that have enough fat in them to make money on the wholesale and have enough for the investor.  

Of course, it depends on what your goals are, but generally people fall into one of two categories:growth modeefficiency mode (trim the fat, 80/20 rule, etc)If you are in growth mode, you'd probably get about a $176k loan (80% LTV) and have $55k to play with. 

Nashville has been booming but Clarksville is about to undergo some interesting business developments.

But that was me, YMMV if you have a fat w2.

He had reasons for everything- the wire transfer had to be early b/c the title company was undergoing an audit and wouldn't be able to clear a check for closings from April 15-May 1, not to call him since he was attending a closing, and he even gave a plausible answer when I asked him where the closing would be- he happened to pick the only title company we have used in that city, maybe by finding it in the e mails from past dealings or maybe since it is the closest one to my realtor's address. 

Like others mentioned above, you will have to judge if it is just a war zone or if it is an area that is currently starting to undergo gentrification. 

Lets see, whisper tons of BS in your earConvince you the market is scarceTell you an appraisal before making an offer is sillyArgue with the bank when the bank appraisal tells you you're paying to muchCollect a fat 2.4% or more (which is a super big payday on a $30k house - lol)Buy all the best deals themselvesWhy do I feel I'm probably not making friends in this thread???

Too fat and happy I guess.
