One thing always holds true, Agents don’t interview their perspective clients to see if they’re a good fit, YOU (the buyer) are always the decision maker!

I picked the building up right ($32,500 at auction) a couple of years ago and took it from a money pit and made it into a money maker (net income $2,300 a month with room to add another $400 +).The city bought the neighboring building for $165,000 and put $79,000 into demolishing it unfortunately the demolition created a lot of potential liability that would be my responsibility.

And by his Deal Maker's course if you can as well.

Phil c it went great..Township kicked them out, I did the rehab and it's now a 4 bedroom section 8 money maker.!

Those are big holes in their education if they want to make real estate investing their main career. 

Take Auctions for example - people buy properties from auctions all the time site unseen without a solid idea of exactly how much it is going to cost to renovate.With wholesalers, the buyers can get a better idea about what exactly is going on inside the property from the numbers that the wholesaler *should* give them (take a look at BP's wholesale report maker for an idea of what I'm talking about - you can report exactly the categories and costs of rehab and projected profits).Thus I think is how you can remain an ethical wholesaler if you aren't a licensed agent since your buyer can simply check out Google Street view to "view" it with your numbers right next to them.

I am curious what are some of your top 5 makers or breakers when looking at purchasing a duplex?

I would send a formal letter but before the letter arrived, I would call and try to speak to the decision-maker (manager, director, etc.).  

Paying other so called smart real estate investors thousands of dollars to make real estate investing easy and to get rich quick without any effort or your own money. 

@Lei Pan  Adair is another of the foundation up builders in the northwestI have built 4 of those.. really not a money maker spec build..
