I had a similar idea (having one of the mortgage brokers I know underwrite any prospective buyers.

Hi, 
I am planning to create LLCs in Wyoming , Michigan and Georgia. Any trusted registered agent or advice will be highly appreciated. 
TIA

basically if anyone has any tips when it comes to researching plots of land in order to make the right purchase i would greatly appreciate it get with a realtor. we underwrite land at no more than 10% of after built value. in our market we build under the average new build value which is about 515k. we like to be around 420-450k and smaller footprint about 1500 sq ft with attached garages. we build close to urban core where everyone wants to live and net migrations match up. but suburban is fine. if you give more context I can help but in most markets land is a buyers market. most people aren't looking at it or buying it. 

I am looking for some help and advice on whether or not this property seems like a smart first investment. 

This is super helpful and I can't emphasize enough how this first sub-to purchase has been a lesson in "I don't know what I don't know." 

I know a great agent in the area who helped my friend buy in Ogden and did a great job negotiating.

The seller should not be expecting you to be the buyer, or surprised when you aren’t. 

In neighborhood it is very important to present your self to the home owner next to you, this helps a lot to prevent misunderstandings. also this shows your professionalism.

Hope this helps. 

Also helping was a relationship with that bank (deposit accounts) and good credit.
