The model is very common and usually has mixed to poor results.

As a licensed broker and wholesaler, I would recommend getting your license if you are serious about building a business model around wholesaling.

@Martin BrownAlso the reality is if you are trying to forecast numbers, the second you hit enter they are wrong as nothing goes the way you modeled it.The important thing to consider when modeling is to have data as accurate as possible (garbage in garbage out), but most importantly (and this is where investors miss the boat), what is the sensitivity to the numbersFor example if doing a flip with hard money, which causes more pain - $20k more to complete, 25k less in sales price or getting the right number but it takes 3 months longer?

I am moving rather slowly (some would say too much so) and I appreciate the experience and expertise of others.

Another thing that I assumed I could rely on the IRA's experience and expertise, but it sounds like it wasn't done correctly.Thanks for all the feedback and passionate/helpful insight; I've reached out to Udirect and I am awaiting their response.

@Michael PlaksThank you for sharing your expertise. 

When you run numbers through a model you realize that even with potentially higher rates, you'll refi a lower principal against higher rents and higher property value, so it is mostly an emotional conern rather than a financial issue.

On the other hand, hiring a GC provides a one-stop shop with streamlined communication, experience, and expertise.

Our rents come in like clockwork and we are able to increase rents annually with the COLA afforded through HUD which makes it a pretty simple business model.  

In addition to that I love accounting and tax and love helping people and pointing them in the right direction even if our model isn't a fit for them hit me up any time!
