also to add it is R 42 now in attics, just had one inspected yesterday, but permits were pulled in March and called for R 38  To get a R 42 the material costs for blown is about $.70 per sq.

The tax credit to the buyers is based on their cost of the system (both PV and Thermal) which would include our time, materials, overhead and profit. 

I've done a bit of due diligence on him so far and he doesnt skimp on his materials/finishes.Theres a lot of decent HUD homes that an owner occupant could maybe justify paying more for than an investor in Maize, East Side etc if you're willing to put in a bit of sweat equity or find a lipstick house.  

May have some plumber cost for repairs but at least the materials will be no cost.

Paneling is always a sign of covering something up so in most cases I would leave and paint if in good condition, for this house it was obvious something was materially wrong so we ripped it all out.

I would suggest that he work with an investor(s) to: coordinate open houses, put out bandit signs, promote mentor investors' properties on social media, go out and price rehab materials, help with flips, bird dog properties, just to name a few.  

Pay on time, choose materials, colors and finishes as needed and facilitate the deal from start to finish.

I found J Scott's Book on Estimating Rehab Costs quite intimidating when it came to finding the subcontractors as well as providing the materials for them.
