There are of course some RE companies that have a niche and never left it but they also have some very large scale and staff's etc..

But, no way an eviction properly executed would take a year.

@Alex Holt I noticed that you said you were waiting to build your buyers list before you started with an execution plan for wholesaling.

We currently manage just shy of 500 properties and would have to staff one person solely for this job.

You go down and meet the section 8 staff that you will be dealing with.

Make sure they understand you know what you want and that you can execute.  

Between the books you've already read and the forums, blogs and podcasts here on BP, you will no doubt have the tools to execute this plan.Take that step.

And then reminded us that since we purchased the house with the occupants in place and thus don't have an executed lease, we cannot enter the house without the occupants permission and thus cannot determine who lives in the house!

Often there is no appraisal (which means lower upfront costs as home value is based on desktop valuations) and no points to pay the person preparing the loan as the banks and credit unions use their in house staff ($15-$20 per hour people) to do these loans.

We are having a very technical and difficult problem to solve involving workman's compensation for independent and sub-contractors.First of all we have a staff of about 15 people and pay workman's compensation for all of our staff including our maintenance and construction staff.We also have a lot of vendors, some of these vendors are independent or sub contractors or 1-man shows.
