The odds of the seller giving you a dollar for dollar reduction on every item that came up on your inspection report is slim and a lot of these things are issues they will claim you could plainly see during your initial property tour/walkthrough. 

Usually I do an open house in summers but it's slim pickings and waiting for enough people to justify an open house is not feasible, it would take a month and they would find another place by then.The one room mate asked about an open house and I explained this to him.Now the other room mate (there are four of them) called  me after I gave notice that there would be a tour tonight at 6 PM (2 days in advance) that he doesn't want me there, it's valentines day, etc. 

Inventories in my area are very slim and have already lost a few really nice properties as I wasn't ready to pull the trigger or couldn't schedule a showing fast enough.

Honestly I wouldn't invest in the Boston area right now, there are so many people that don't have anywhere to park their cash, so they are buying properties with such slim margins. 

Those margins are just to slim for me. 

The odds of it truly being worth exactly what you agreed to pay are very slim, but most of my deals are like that.

Your pickings are slim at that price point here in South Florida.

The chance for an inexperienced wholesaler to complete a deal is exceedingly slim.
