I am concern about doing anything too far and have less/minimum control, but the current environment is forcing my hand. 

There are non-tax considerations, especially so in the current environment.I'm hearing from my clients that it's very difficult to get contractors on the job and they're charging an arm and a leg because they all have an incredible backlog of work.In the current environment, I'd say the less risky path is to acquire a property without deferred maintenance and do a cost seg if it is beneficial.

I currently work around 65-75 hours per work in a sales environment.

Only look at zip codes that have a least 3k housing units (target rich environment) and a median home value of 100-250k.

He seem to be excited about using Zelle, his control over it, while I prefer the trouble free environment provided by your service where the tenant knows he should have money in the bank by a certain date.Haven't checked to see if you have a mobile app yet as everybody has a version now and pushing it.

@Ryan Howard welcome...doing some more research on your desired path should shed some light on the environment you're working in...I would caution noting that you do not have capital, but want to wholesale to raise capital...you're essentially admitting you are trying to broker real estate without a license...you will hear lots of opinions on this, but the bottom line is if you have no intent to close on a contract you enter into, you're engaging in unlicensed activity and subject to $1,000/day fines.I'm not saying don't wholesale...I am saying do your homework so you don't end up in a tight situation.Taking time to explore every option in RE investing is not a good approach...I can save you years of heartache and you'll be wealthy much faster by sticking to fundamentals...long-term buy and hold real estate is the only path you need to go down.
