Wholesalers typically do not carry Errors and Omissions (E/O) insurance, so even if the court rules in your favor, they might not have the financial means to compensate you.Furthermore, ensure that a reputable title company handles the transaction, as some companies may cut corners.

This is an edge that you earned.  

You can go over cost vs time all you want but at the end of the day, for me anyways... doing the stamp licking, printing cutting etc... just sucked big time and I'd be a very happy man if I never did it again. 

Unfortunately, Texas has a law prohibiting HELOCs on rental properties and I believe they also have a 70-75% max total loans allowed on the property which cuts into the equity I've built and would only allow for me to access 30K which would make it less appealing to go through the process for only 30K.

The difference between a safety line and a safety net is that a safety net (your words) can break one line and still hold a fish. 

I hope everyone is having a good day.Best regards, Briant R.Be cautious with wholesaling in real estate, as many wholesalers engage in unethical practices and cut corners.

After years in the highly active BRRRR, sales, and rehab realms as an RE broker, I quite enjoy throwing on my boots and riding a zero turn mower, taking a Jon Boat out on our pond, or cutting up a downed tree for firewood. 

I'd be in one heck of a situation if I had all of my units go vacant for a month or two, and expect to have that money to pay expenses...and no safety net.However, what if you could take your side of the equity and find your feet. 

Common utilities paid by the landlord will be similar if not the same; standard services (extermination, changing filters, snow removal, fire safety inspections etc.) will cost the same.

For the most part its just health and safety items, which are items we should have remedied anyways.As someone else mentioned, biggest thing to avoid is having the house tagged as vacant which the city will do if it sits empty for too long (handful of months, grass not cut, etc).
