I am brand new to real estate and am trying to start wholesaling, I have a realtor that I am working with to find homes.

I don’t know about A2 specifically.  

Coffered ceilings, low corner additions etc.Anyone can slap lipstick on a pig, looking for high value add in high demand markets is where the $ is.

Going to do another? 

It started with heat complaints.

The best thing you can do is plan that the first year will be on the lean side.

With your budget, depending on where you are working, I'd consider Silver Spring or Hyattsville  

I grew up in the Western US, where homes are generally constructed the same (broadly speaking). 

As we have an accounting firm, note I am a bit biased, but here is what I see folks have the most success do: You should start with an accountant who is very familiar with your investment strategy and grow with them until you cant anymore.

Update: I decided I will pay a $500-750 or so to do an initial hydro-jetting of the system.
