The listing boasted 'NEW' Kitchen & Bath and they were blinded by the clean white kitchen cabinets/tumbled marble backsplash and new vanity in the main bath that they didn't see how cheaply it was done.

New bath, new kitchen, stainless steel, quartz, refinished floors, parking pad, can lights, LED, new blinds, some new windows, curb appeal, etc. 

It's a beautiful system based on value.Don't get blinded by just applying one number or a figure someone calls a "rule"

If you really want an attempt at this property just put in an blind offer at what you think it's worth (or even lower so you got some room to negotiate).

I've been in the construction industry for multiple years and been on the construction end of flex and I'm ready to move into the real estate and brokerage side and investment side of Fix and Flip looking for any answers to any questions and looking for anything further knowledge than what I already have to try and put himself in a lot of things to prove myself so that when I do you jump fully into this that I do have a much better knowledge of what I'm doing then going into it with just a blind construction site experience

It's funny how we somewhat blindly stumble into things that turn out to be good moves, but it's great that you're now putting some more thought and purpose behind it.

I don't know if the blind leading the blind is the best action plan, but you and I will have to chat offline sometime very soon.

However, it would come in handy in times where you want MLS access...writing blind offers, pulling comps, listing your flips.Bottom line, you just need to weigh out the pros and cons. :)Good luck!!!

To go beyond the scope of the forum question, if you do get an employee, get a pro to help you set up business processes to make sure they can't defraud you blind. 

I would recommend picking one of them and learning as much as you can before jumping in blindly.
