So if you're kind of on the fence for this idea and could be nudged either way, that's food for thought. :)

I have nearly all of my closing costs accounted for but am missing the estimated Title company's escrow fees and other recorded fees, which are split 50/50 with the seller.Could anyone help me get an idea as to how much this would cost?

If nothing else, I learned how to do just about everything as far as renovations go, and now can walk in to any property in the area and have a general idea of what I am getting myself in to and the costs of the rehab.A few takeaways from this project:1. 

An option is covering/replacing the screen with expanded steel, or a decorative metal mesh.

I like the idea of owning the dirt and utilities but not the headache of the houses. 

I will share information and great ideas that I always come up with.

I generally think it is a bad idea for someone with a license to participate in wholesaling.

If not, you may have little or no idea of the quality of what you're investing in). 

Any ideas on this?

It's been only 6 months since I have moved to Washington and have no idea where to find a reliable contractor.
