The states have the right to interpret their SAFE Acts in order to enact and implement their own laws covering or excluding certain persons and activities.

I was in the same situation for quite some time, unable to come up with estimates, and trying to form strategic partnerships with general contractors who would give me a written estimate that they would honor if my buyer hired them.Anyways, about a month ago, another wholesaler in my local area told me his rule of thumb - a full rehab, excluding foundation repair (which is common in Texas), should cost at or below $15 per square foot with a cost competitive general contractor, and closer to $17-$19 per square foot with a more expensive GC.I took this rule of thumb and ran with it, comparing it to all of the emails from other wholesalers that I receive, and it holds true, at least in DFW.

(I'm not one -- a flipper that is, I am trustworthy, at least my dog thinks so:).One good thing about investment income is that it doesn't incur payroll taxes of 7.65%, as wages do, and may be excluded by your local or municipal taxing authority.Also, if you do buy property, you will get a depreciation benefit that will give you a larger pre-tax equivalent amount of income, compared to wages, and could possibly drop you into a lower tax bracket.

If you are representing both sides, you should especially consider having an expert review the addendum.All of the above is just a real-world example, not legal advice, so proceed at your own risk and carry good E&O insurance that doesn't exclude seller financed transactions.

From the research I've done, it seems like most areas of Raleigh would suit me fine excluding South Raleigh and Southeast Raleigh (from what I understand, these are higher crime areas).I know finding a home on a 100K budget might be somewhat tough, but I have seen some decent looking detached single-family properties for sale/sold in Northeast Raleigh as well as other parts of Raleigh for 100K and even below.
