He got us a quick walkthough but since we figured weren't getting it and it was an awkward tour with tenants home (someone taking a shower, someone sleeping in one of the BRs, etc.) and all we didn't give it the full examination it warranted if we were truly figuring the price we want to pay.Now we have an accepted offer at our full initial, non-negotiated (yet) best-guess price.

None has to take thousands of dollars.Wholesaling is simply being a straw man, nothing more, but it's not simple, in fact you can have more issues there than selling to mom and pop that will live in a home.My point is learn RE basics, not strategies, won't take you two weeks to understand how all the strategies fit into the basics of RE, how RE is transferred, title requirements, types of deeds, rights conveyed, how to value a property and examine the market.Learn RE financing rules, you need to know them to sell otherwise you're always looking for cash buyers.We say, don't be a one trick pony, wholesaling is one trick.
