I agree; I wish we could just price our services at say 18% or 20% but it's one of those things that from both a historical aspect and from a salesmanship aspect that I think you see it's always been done that way.

I am one of the owners and happy to answer any specific questions you have about our three day workshop curriculum.I think you will find the workshop to be of value as we do cover a lot of ground throughout the course of three days.People will sometimes be critical because yes we do spend some time at the workshop discussing how our coaching and consulting can be of value to your real estate investing business long-term.Feel free to contact me directly as my information is at the bottom of this post.

I get many of my low offers accepted but while they are low in price they are preferable with every other aspect. 

First it is critical to establish an accurate ARV that will be as close as possible to the Appraised Value when you Refinance the property.  

Education:  This is the most important aspect. 

@Ralph R.That's a reasonable scenario, and I agree an LLC is not critical if you have good insurance coverage.  

But as you point out, the financing aspect makes things much more difficult, and it's partly the reason why they are not very popular.  

If you're not successful you can always use a listing agent or property management company to handle the leasing aspect.  

Usually everyone in those meet ups are more than willing to give you advice and also help build your network which is one of the most important aspects of wholesaling.

These people (could be 1 person or 3) are critical to your success as an out of state investor.
