So, people called up, and I had a template with questions to ask about their perception of the value, how much was owed, how late they were, when the auction was, how much the house needed in repairs, etc.

There is also a perception by much of the market that Redfin properties tend to be in worse condition.  

The answer depends on the perception of the field agent who audits your return if ever.  

However, I have come to find when converting crack houses/multi's to rentals the exterior remodel is the most important in changing the perception.

The things you are talking about won't increase the rents or perception of the property much at all.

After the 12 months you can set any term you and the tenant agree on.https://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/9232/55313-intro-to-section-8---your-perceptions-vs-my-realitiesGood luck!

Or you could invest in properties on terms and, possibly, assign the agreement between you and the seller to another investor for a slight profit.Again, I am NOT disagreeing with your lawyer, but as some have said before, contract assignments (to the best of my knowledge) aren't illegal - and when you're wholesaling a property, you are transferring ownership of the contract itself and the rights to purchase, not the real estate property (or at least this is my perception on the topic.)Hopefully this helps: http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/assignment-of-contract-basics-32643.html**Please NOTE these are just my opinions and are in no way, shape, or form, any legal advise.

Perception will conquer reality, always.

Honestly I don't have a clue what any of that means David.I'm just a dumb guy that goes to work everyday.Some investors laugh at me, some think that they are better than me, some are scared of me, some are terrified of me and others see no value at all in me.That's my current perception, right or wrong.
