I am not an experienced wholesaler so that is why I am asking the questions. 

My firm does engineered cost segregation which requires Form 3115 if the subject property was purchased prior to the current year, called a "look-back study".

I am also curious how experienced pros justify their discount figure, ie, how do experienced NPN/lien buyers justify their offer.

I was talking w/a very experienced MF syndicator this morning and I know him very well.

It's almost impossible to explain the magic and the power behind this program, it's like nothing I've ever experienced in my life, and it's very near and dear to my heart. :)

I would greatly appreciate any feedback and insight from the experienced folks on there, thanks again in advance. 

I have had trouble with accurately estimating rehab costs I'm not sure if the best route is to start calling subcontractors and ask for bids on an example house or if I should just get a GC or someone who is experienced in the area to walk properties with me at the start?

I am studying to become a Software Engineer (and hopefully someday design software for REIs).
