Below are the concerns I have regarding the property.After looking at the tax records, the property has been sold 5 times in the last 15 years (red flag?).

This is why I only invest out of state in red states.

How do we get the MLS to fix the properties with the correct square footage or is this a scam going on, .......How the heck can we get a correct comp when the MLS is not reporting the correct square footage, or the broker?  

That is a massive red flag.

I assume things like square footage and my phone number are obviously required.  

@Claire Hughes , I have no experience with this person or company.Check out our Scam Page , with red flags for common scams. 

The comps need to be within the same neighborhood, similar square footage, and type of property.  

I live in Redding, CA and I'm looking into doing out of state wholesale deals as well as trying to get deals done in my city but only thing that I'm trying to figure out still is if I can do out of state deals with out an LLC.

Anyone who has recently tried to purchase a home in Fountain Square sees what has happened.

I looked into this and FHA will allow this, also the new granny flat laws just went into affect for california allowing "accessory dwelling units" on SFR lots sized up to 50% the square footage of the primary residence.
