Roy -I don't mean to be a e-peen measuring toolbag here, but that attitude is why most real investors pay absolutely zero attention to what the wholesaler claims the repair cost is... wholesalers tend to find real (aka: Useful, realistic) quotes to be 'too detailed' and 'tedious', and as a result tend to miss tens of thousands of dollars worth of repairs.And just in general - I hate it when wholesalers give me sauce about balancing heat flow.

But, getting involved in government red-tape isn't enticing either.Is this nonchalant attitude normal or is this a big red flag?
