If all fails, you can never go wrong with honesty and transparency.

If you don't feel they are being transparent then move on.

I have asked for transparency on the repairs.

Proper transparent accounting is essential to any partnership, including when partnership is family.

BP preaches transparency when wholesaling and conducting your business as white-hat as possible. 

This is a clearer way of being accurate and transparent. 

So definitely be picky- as long as it's reasonable.I recommend: credit check, addresses and employer for last 5 years & reason for moving, non-family personal referral, current employer contact (call them- and be very brief and transparent- 2 questions: How long working there, and are they a good worker?

In full transparency, I have zero real estate experience however would love to meet others who could use some extra help.

You have no friggin idea how to be transparent, honest and straigght to the point...BUT..

Hi BP Family,I want to be as transparent as possible and ask you guys a question.
