This could be a genuine reason, such as they need the equity for a larger deal, or they are relocating, or downsizing.  

I like the idea of wholesale real estate because it can genuinely help a person in a pickle get out fast, and move on with their life.

I’m genuinely excited to get to know you all and hopefully we can generate some stimulating dialogue.

Have you had genuine interest from any banks?

For me problems transformed into profitability when I reflected on my first flip project and concluded that having an ill-fated plan and no protection agreements with my contractors.

Can you just imagine the review if someone put that a bad experience transformed into a glowing review?

You also need to check with the utility companies and get cost estimates from them for availability, fees, hookup charges, transformer and power line/power pole locations or relocation requirements, water, sewer,gas, cable etc You will need ball park cost estimates from site work contractors for site work, roads, installation of utility lines etcThis is just a high-level summary of some of the things you need to check out before you move forward with the contract.

2020 has been a transformative year for me, it all started off by reading Rich Dad, Poor Dad - cliche, I know - and inevitably found my way to Real Estate & BiggerPockets podcasts, forums, and books.So far this year I've completely paid off my debt/mistakes of my 20's ($25k+), built my credit score back up, and I'm now focussed on increasing my buying power through my own savings and OPM (other peoples money, commercial/private).As far as markets go, my immediate strategy is to eliminate my biggest expense (rent), by house hacking an SFH in either West Adams or Long Beach using a rent by the room strategy on a property where I can add value through renovations.My long-term strategy is geared around building a portfolio of cash-flowing rentals - and with that being the biggest challenge in my local market - I'll be looking to invest out of state. 

@Ann Bellamy thanks for your genuine, helpful advice Ann!
