Until then my faithful 07 F150 bought it from the city of AustinI didn't even know, that tesla is going to manufacture a truck...saw it now on their homepage...looks like those military cyber vehicles...very futuristic indeed.

No major criminal?

Rental Data: get market reports from Rent Range, Zillow and also seek a professional property managers opinion on how long it will take to rent, what price it will rent for, and how strong of an applicant will this area receive (as far as criminal background checks, credit risk, strength of employment).Renovation Scopes: An area where you can get burned the most, many "wholesalers" use this area to put "lip-stick on a pig" taking care of cosmetic issues so that you think you are getting a renovated home, but failing to address major and expensive systemic issues.

What your going to do is work your *** off weekends and nights fixing this crapper up so it's decent, make it charming, get Craig list help for 8 bucks an hour.. they may have bad criminal backgrounds so watch your stuff but work them like no tomorrow ok, and do this off your extra income your making per month and ALSO be finding another car to flip on the side to fund this fix up of used wood, old doors, some paint and a LOT of HARD LABOR...but here is the key, by doing this if you BOUGHT WELL BELOW MARKET on this UGLY house....guess what your doing. you are MULTIPLYING your value from your low cost labor and skills at finding good deals for free stuff to fix it up...This is pure brain spit so I am just typing as I think sorry...so....Here is the thing, IF you did this right, you took 1k and in less then 6 months you could and should be turning it into lets say 25k in profit when you sell this house that is now "nice" "cute" and a good "first time home owner home"so, that's one way to take 1k and start to become financially free, it's basically what I did but I started with a little more cash, and now my personal value after many deals has a decent amount of zeros in it.The really bad part is trust me when I say this the first part is THE WORST and the HARDEST. the more you do. the more capital you have access to the less work it becomes in a somewhat unfair exponential curve.  

(Name, address, Tax ID number, what legal entity they are...)Also in your case as you're nervous about upsetting the crooks, the notification to a new vendor prior to the work started that you require a W9 from them before a check will be issued will be the 'heads up'for  the criminals that you intend to 1099 them.

There's a lot that can go wrong and can result in criminal charges if you screw it up.I typically hire private investigators before I've done my adverse possession cases. 

I agree with @WayneBrooks as there are a lot of variables here and anyone who (1) has experience and (2) guaranteeing up to 40% returns would probably already have his rolodex of contacts and wouldn't need your money.I cant advise you on analyzing the development side, but I'd make sure I check the local state criminal records for him (great way to get some info on his past) and ask for past projects he's completed and then do your due diligence and make sure that the builder is actually his company.In terms of specifics:-How much minimum is he looking for?

Before I kick the bucket I'm going to make sure these people, a few more than others are charged  criminally.
