Now after a while on the job (we mainly sell investment properties in the $1mill to $30mill range) I have yet to see any of our clients get sweet wholesale deals.

Okay these numbers indicate a sweet deal.

It would be a really sweet deal for him, and there is a grand already there in an account he would receive plus there is $30,000 in cash buried on my fathers property, which i believe my brother has already exhumed. so it should be a snap, less than attorney fees if we battle it out.

I would be way more concerned with the condition of the heating and/or central A/Cs as they cost thousands each...5% down and 3%interest for 25 years is SWEET!

Sweet.

An elevator in a house is sweet.

I find a 15%-20% roi  to be the sweet spot. 

You may find sweet deals there!
