Each platform, whether RS, Real Crowd, Realty Mogul, Crowdstreet etc say they do deep dives on the sponsor track record, property, location etc etc.

the wholesaler negotiates the deal typically at a deep discount and charges the buyer a mark up which at your purchase price should also be discounted below market value(if done correctly).  

So, I'm neck deep in it now.. lol

I have a question for those of you deep in the weeds on this.

This property is a fix and flip, but I plan on buying at a very deep discount and will resell as is on the MLS.

Check out BP's book on Estimating Rehab Costs if you want a deep dive.

I would not do anything to it aside from a deep clean.

It’s important to remember that current figures are being compared to very strong housing market activity in 2016, so a decline in home sales growth does not automatically mean that the market is softening.Mark Sprague, State Director of Information Capital for Independence Title, agrees:“Low inventory levels, high home prices and slowing job growth across the region are preventing a resurgence of the record-breaking numbers experienced the last two years, but overall the region’s housing market remains very strong.

Biggest advice you can probably get: take it slow.
