That's it, but a) print out a page for each property you think is comparable, b) make the list of repairs long and inclusive of everything you've done. c) Put larger items first like kitchen remodel......and don't just say 'kitchen remodel', list things like 'custom backsplash tile/Bosch appliances/recessed can lighting/pot filler/etc. d) Cite the price/value of the work done, and don't be afraid to be generous.

I personally don't like the idea of using OPM as is often recommended for people without their own capital.

What I personally do is I will hire a local Civil engineer who has done subdivisions in the jurisdiction and I will pay them up front for a detailed feasibility study.

Would even be happy to meet in person since we are in the same area.

I’ve met most of my partners through in-person events because it’s easier to get a feel for someone’s personality and long-term vision.

If they are available online or in person.

This person has 8 months remaining on their lease.

Investors want a person that they consider a good "business partner", but most of the wholesalers I see come of as borderline crimnals.

Without any form of credible references this person may care less about you and are only interested in the sale, which would be your problem after.

I would personally roll the dice on the rental and see where it gets me if you don't have to sell at this moment.
