Comping and rehab.Being able to pinpoint the value and also familiarize yourself at least with the basics of what certain things cost (Paint, flooring, cabinets, countertops, vanities, shower tile, lighting, roof replacement, HVAC replacement, window replacement, pool resurface, etc) is crucial to being able to figure out what you can offer / what an investor will pay for the propertyThen learn how to reverse lookup buyers and what they are paying as a % of ARV in certain areas and use all of those things to start making offersPhil is mostly into STRs now not as much wholesaling but I've wholesaled 60 properties in the past 6 months and these are the areas I focus on

Relationships are a crucial key to success in this business but not the end all be all in terms of lending.

Crashpads are NOT where airlines place their crews during scheduled trips (although many would love to do just that).Brian, I never ran a crashpad (considered it a few times however), but I did rent a crashpad for a few months when I was based in Fresno flying for a large regional airline (I live in Orange County).

I currently live in the Orange County (Irvine), and am looking to buy a home soon.
