Action steps for me in your position would be; 1. add a profile picture 2. make my account a pro account for credibility and ability to market in the marketplace 3. post on bigger pockets 25 times a day for a month straight 4. check out my house deals . com 5. start going to real estate meetings from meet up . com 

I also look at straight ROI - as this includes debt servicing whereas the Cap Rate does not.  

I am a firm believer in straight talk, truth, and communication.

Any articles that go in more detail into wholesaling, Books that you have found helpful.It sounds pretty straight forward what you are describing, however, I have always found that the devil is in the details. 

I am not a turn key provider, my properties came straight off the MLS with some pretty tough negotiating.  

Things that make you go hmmm.Spend a few hours trying to explain a lease option to a seller, then the seller gets a call from me (or 3 dozen other investors chasing that same deal) offering a pile of cash and see which deal they take.Now, I have done 2, count them, 1. 2. straight options and they were both very profitable.

Alternatively I was thinking to avoid getting in the middle of that confusing situation just using 2) a straight option. ..as these sellers can sit on these properties as they already have tenants.

In the future with more inventory I'll just put it on one tab with different columns to give it categories and keep it straight, just throw a pivot table/pivot chart over it and you have all the reporting you need. 

Some locations look like they'll NEVER get their new build costs back straight away. 

I read this post about an hour ago and went straight to IFTTT and created my recipe.
