A rehab of this size has many layers and moving pieces.

Hello everyone, My name is Taylor Vitale.

-Depending on the state of the bungalow you could be dealing with a fairly straightforward roof replacement and repiping to having to invest in shoring up the foundation and repairing layers of DIY fixes and shawdy craftsmanship and significant wood rot.

If doors and windows don't operate well, if they bind not due to multiple layers of paint, you likely have an issue.

If they don't like what you show them, treat it like peeling away layers of an onion, until you can get to the core of what they're looking for.

Wholesaling is one of the toughest gigs there is, you need to master so many things from marketing to estimating, don't add another layer of difficulty on top.

because of corrupt listing agents, I am more interested in closing on the property that  I want then having another layer between myself and my carefully researched asset

While all of these are vital for many different reasons my suggestion would be to find what really fits YOUR lifestyle.There is no wrong or right with which direction you take in RE (As long as you do your due diligence of course) just as long as it fits YOUR lifestyle because in the end you need to be happy and confident in what you do and not try to pursue someone else's  direction simply because they have had success in it.One of the best ways to really gain the knowledge you seek is after you pin down you niche really reach out to those in that specific field.

I think from a liability perspective, especially down the road if the buyer has problems with the house or your work, you would want that extra layer of protection.Andy

I think there are some good scripts around the threads that build rapport and get you vital information.
