Your using an incorrect foundation that the insanely E-Z market of the last recent years where a person can all but blindly throw a dart at a MLS map and buy whatever and clear a 7+ cap yr1, that's flawed. 

I tend to trust R's estimate over Z.

Quote from @Theo Z.: Keith Johnston or Andrew Vagley are well-suited.

I have the drive to do so, but I want to start getting information and tips for this process as soon as I can and as clearly as I can, so that way I can meet my deadline.I've looked into it, listening to the podcast episodes about wholesale while at work, created a project proposal with data and rough calculations for personal finance and also deal scouting, and I'm researching every moment of my spare time, BUT: I'm having a hard time with everything going on in my life to formulate the information into a proper attack strategy of "do X, then Y, then Z"Are any of you able to offer me your wisdom and insight for a basic breakdown of how I can do this?

Looks like you will soon be one of them so by all means, feel free to be in touch.Diedrick Z.

Why not post a complete A-Z on how to buy and sell notes?

@Ryan Z. 

You'll probably also want to get an experienced GC who understands zoning, code and permitting in your area to walk the property, and tell you what needs to be done (and how much it will cost)...you'll also want to talk with the GC and the city/county about what things can't be done (for instance, if you planned to do X, Y and Z to the property, but zoning/code won't allow you to do those things, obviously you want to know that before you buy the property).Until you do these things, the $15k seller credit you mentioned is almost meaningless (because, you don't yet know whether the work needed will cost you $15k, or $50k).
