That approach might not serve the seller well, especially since the goal is to genuinely help them by offering a reliable quick solution.My current thought is to focus on networking and building a solid and extensive buyers list and understanding their ideal investment criteria upfront.

First, I would never try and provide tax advice to a seller, it will get you sued, especially to a 100 year old person.Regarding seller finance, since the amount is spread out over long term, they should check with their CPA on how they are or are not taxed on the gains as well as interest on the loan.

• Are there specific networking events or forums within the BiggerPockets community that you recommend?

In new markets, network, use a trusted title company, and consult an attorney for legal guidance.

Bigger Pockets is a great place for education and networking. 

. - Projects give us visibility on my projects- My CPA can easily access the reports for tax preparation.

Please forward this to any folks in your network who you think may be a good fit for this class!

Definitely be sure to check the meetups section on BP to attend some networking in the area 

Since you have no experience- network and find the most active fix and flip investors in Charlotte, Raleigh or Greensboro. 

The best way to find these are networking locally.
