EDUCATE YOURSELF - yes, it will take time, but will lead to a selection that better meets your expectations & avoids potentially costly surprises!

First question: how much cash do you have to invest, and is this separate from your emergency funds? 

"Do a thorough title search, lien search, code violation search, comdemnation list"-  If I hire a title company to ensure all liens are cleared and say surprise 10k lien shows up in my mailbox, can you hold the  title company accountable for what they missed?

What are some other emerging markets maybe with a bit lower to cost to entry for a BRRRR strategy?

Without a firm base and working familiarity with these three areas the investor will not have the knowledge to analyze, negotiate and close advantageous real estate transactions. 2- Experience - the first few deals are likely to be smaller, harder, with more “surprises” and not as profitable as the investor imagined.

I'm a little surprised that @Chase McArthur thinks it's only suitable "to help you decide whether or not to submit your LOI for further diligence". 

Tenants in many markets already believe they pay too much (contrary to recent studies that show rent to property values have never been lower for the large US cities).If my insurance costs are not double my current rates over the next couple years, I will be pleasantly surprised.  

I guess I'm not surprised, but how disrespectful.What I picture in a commercial wholesaling business is an individual who spends years building relationships with actually owners.

However, if there is not an emergency or immediate need, then we will do our research on quotes or take our time figuring out how we would do it ourselves and make the time to do it.

The behavior is a bit off, but not surprising for a mom & pop landlord.We tell our residents exactly what we need from them for the application.
