Mind's playing tricks on you.Yes, this may not pass as the World's best analogy; however, there are some similarities with REI.

It is hard to find a bunch of LLC's that don't have a web page or any easy way to find them, so the list brokers pass a lot of owners up.

You would visit the assessor's office.If you pass a property while walking or driving around your interested in then you can see if your county has an online GIS.

Everyone over age 18 should pass a criminal check and be comfortable that they are enhancing rather than harming the property and household dynamics. 

Often cases a wholesaler helps a distressed buyer sell fast when their POS house won't pass a tradition inspection required by a bank/lender for a traditional sale to a home buyer.

It was cool getting to pass a cop at an intersection along a highway where the speed limit was 45 and we'd run through at 70/75!

Even mortgage lenders give favorable considerations to those that may have a bankruptcy due to events beyond the applicant's control, like divorce or medical bills.In the eyes of any regulator type, saying they must pass a credit check is not giving any qualification level to be met.

So you will have an idea what work it would take for this unit to pass a section 8 inspection.

By asking if you can wholesale it says you want to pass a contract for a fee, if your intentions are something else, you can say so as you really wouldn't be wholesaling if you are simply assisting her (which, IMO, is where your duty should be).You said she had no equity, but worth 90 minus 15 is 75 and her mortgage is 70, that's 5 k in equity, settlement costs will eat that but she has equity.How did you get your rehab costs, what is really needed, I could do a modest kitchen rehab, change out all the flooring, interior paint, and do some outside work for less than 15K.

@Mark Albano This is a definite pass as a buy and hold investment.
