In my area, there is a distinction between "modular" and "manufactured doublewide or singlewide" Traditionally modular would mean wood frame, typically built to stick-built standards.

The idea that good deals find money is not a "guru-ism" myth.There are 2 distinctly different questions being asked.1) If I have a great deal will money find me?

I think the distinction is that -- as a vast generalization and not applicable in every case -- many wholesalers aren't so much interested in working hard to be successful; instead, they are looking for a get-rich-quick opportunity.

There are three distinct types of knowledge you needHow to do deals, wholesaling, rehabing, lease options etcHow to evaluate dealsKnowing your marketYou only need to know how to do 1 type of deal to move forward.

I was having trouble understanding how to calculate it when there are distinct discrepancies, like extra acreage, or a swimming pool, etc?

It may be that a prospect is unaware of such distinctions, but of course for the sake of your credibility it's good to err on the side of caution.

From the brokers that I've met with, it seems that there are distinct differences among them.

Oh gosh.The distinction here is different than what is being guessed.

The distinction is people trying to wholesale out of the gate and they do not have knowledge of anything.

As @Aaron Mazzrillo for wholesalers in Socal there are some wackadoodles willing to pay way too much for it so he sells it to them, the distinction is he would not himself work with those numbers.
