That's a bit further SE than where I looked, though, so I don't think I've actually see this specific area.

Keith Ghion - the process I'm describing above is generally used for properties that I buy myself, and then re-sell (not the traditional "wholesaling" model, per se) - but yes, when I do use the wholesaling approach, I just bury the cost in my wholesaling fee.I typically determine that a property is ready for an inspection after I've run the numbers and the seller has accepted my offer (my purchase agreement has an inspection clause that allows me to renegotiate the price after I know what is ACTUALLY going on with the property).Does that make sense?

There is no multi-list per se for commercial though there are Loopnet & Costar and other commercial sites.NAICIR also has a website as well as other commercial brokers.

I'm SE Chicago.

I too am from Grand Rapids with units in Lowell and SE GR.
