Center of Influence (Other Wholesalers and Realtor® brought deals) Hope it helps!

If there is commercial debt, there are often more stringent requirements (having to provide annual financials, etc.) that may influence your decision as well.  

Through these past years, I started reading business books, like Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki, listening to positive motivational influencers like Tony Robbins & Les Brown, watch videos of Business Entrepreneurs like Dan Lok, Grant Cardone, Gary Vanerchuck, Tai Lopez, and Stephen Granhams.

Something I’ll take away from this thread is the need to educate and re-educated SMs within my sphere of influence and advise leadership to do the same.

It also provides basic pricing ranges and discusses the different factors that influence pricing.Next, I would compile a list of these common repairs into a spreadsheet to help you get organizedOnce you've got your spreadsheet compiled make some trips to Home Depot or Lowes to get a feel for how much materials costs for flooring, tubs, toilets, lighting, etc.As Jim suggested there are good resources for Labor costs such as RS Means, but the best and most accurate source for labor costs is to contact local contractors. 

Here in Cleveland, it isn't a dealbreaker, but it could influence your rent. 

Each of these influence the calculated value and your decision on what each value should be is based on your own risk assessment.It helps to have some industry and market knowledge to give you more confidence in your underwriting input.

I’ve spoken with a number of long time investors, who have been in my circle of influence for quite some time, and I never knew!

Look for ads - We buy real estate...... whom do you see more often at a auctions - talk to real estate agents who deal with investors - who is their best client -You are looking for THE MAN - the person who is making things happen - this is the person you want to connect with.Don't over-look active investors on Bigger Pockets - it is OK to have a long distant Mentor as long as they are qualified - active in the market and can prove it.When you find THE MAN - the person who is making deals - bringing in $20,000 or much more a month - this is the person you want to FOLLOW ---So - how do you you worm yourself into his center of influence?

And make your deal easy to say "Yes" to.Lastly, let your friends and family, Sphere of Influence, Book of Business and REIA groups know what you're looking for, they might know someone or have a pocket listing coming up - like I do...:) So, what are you looking for?
