Hi David,When I am first evaluating a deal to see if it's worth pursuing I use the 70% to 75% Rule.MPP = (ARV x 70 up to 75%) - RepairsBased upon MY EXPERIENCE estimating repair costs on hundreds of projects I can generally look at a property and know a rough range of what I would spend on the repairs to help me quickly analyze a deal.If I determine if the property is worth pursuing, I will walk through the property and perform a detailed analysis of all project costs and put together a detailed estimate of the repairs.So here's the tricky part for newbies, unfortunately, there is really no easy way of 'getting close' on repairs if you don't know what to look for or know nothing about construction, repairs or costs...There are many factors that can influence repairs costs and it can be very dangerous to ask other investors how much they pay for things because their circumstances can be substantially different from your own.  

Lastly, if you haven't had any (or many) claims in the past 3 years, and the payout of this claim is minimal to the carrier, then I wouldn't imagine your premium would be influenced too much due to this loss.

I primarily find most of my deals through cold-calling skip-traced lists, pocket listings, wholesaler found deals, and through my sphere of influence.

With the kind of influence the Bar Associations have in every state, I can't imagine any state restricting an attorney from doing closings.Consider a 220 million dollar shopping mall being sold anywhere in the country.

This seems very cool to me and I wish to network w/ some AI influencers and knowledge leaders to implement these strategies.

This meant sometimes invest with those who are with great marketers or those with influencer connections, rather than the most solid operators.
