When I lose weight and get hair transplants I'll post my pic, until than I'll have Atticus Finch "represent".

He was working on putting up a railing going to the second floor before I paid him, but when I visited the house afterwards it was ripped out of the wall by its own weight because it was only screwed in on one end. 

So to calculate a real return you had better factor in the reality that your homes will rapidly lose their value.Thus a large part of your projected cash flow is a return OF your capital not a return ON your capital - i.e. you are gradually liquidating your own business.If you were buying near-worthless old homes for much less money, and buying land already developed as pads, to get your lot rent - that would seem to make sense.

From there draw a list of pros and cons and put a weight to each. 

How would you weight these criteria?

But, don't attribute too much weight to the whole 2% thing...consider it a wish list goal...

I look forward to learning every detail there is to wholesaling from those of you who have dabbled and mastered it, and gradually reaching a point to flip or hold.Till next time!

Either way, you should examine the market to determine what you should offer and put less weight on the list price.

But of course he was a known buyer that carried a lot of weight..

The agent should be able to take some weight off your shoulders.I would love to talk with you and see how I can help you succeed with your deals!
