I had very little time to devote to it, and every day it sat vacant was costing us money.

I understand the dedication and devotion of hard work.

If your initial budget is $100 for advertising, how much capital are you devoting to wholesaling?

To me, that would be particularly stupid, as I'd be leveraged to the hilt, facing potentially disastrous consequences, while unable to devote my best efforts to MAKING the investment work. 

You need to answer questions like:- how much time can you devote?

Keep the hardwoods and refinish if they are in decent condition -- it will be much less expensive than new flooring of equal value and will probably look great.As for the order or doing the rehab, the BiggerPockets flipping book has an entire chapter devoted to that...

Lately I've decided to gear my business towards investors and I've been devoting a lot of my time and effort to finding potential fix & flip deals.

But i know I am not :)I am looking to devote more time kind of full time to RE investing now.I am looking for some really good deals 50 to 70% of market value with some repairs and safe deals in terms of title etc, Can do flip or hold the properties.I went Houston RICH club (also some networking meetings) and wanted to use expertise and knowledge from the mentors over there for my transactions to get best deals and jump start to my RE investments, Any experience with them over there?

Hi @Jacob Payne ,There's a section here on BP devoted to investors like yourself, just now getting started.

If I didn't need the high COC return, and I had time to devote to finding my own deals, we'd be buying DFW properties from $100,000-$150,000 ARV
