Seasoned investors actually seek out and depend on wholesalers who provide research and bring value added deals to the table.

My name is Charlie and I am a seasoned tax accountant and beginner real estate investor.

Like the "seasoning" period to cash out. 

Develop and document the system, train someone who is not a seasoned technician, and follow up to make sure he/she stays on track.  

Older homes in our area often have a functioning forced air furnace with ducts for all 1st floor rooms but gravity registers (basically holes-with-grills through the 1st fl ceiling/2nd fl floor) for the 2nd floor.  

Not sure if forming in another state makes that much of a difference but again I'll defer to more seasoned folks.

@Cheri Banet To do a cash-out at a higher value, you have to let the purchase season for 6 months.

Even under a (wholesale) contract, a conventional buyer doesn't work due to Seasoning?

A seasoned buyer should be able to evaluate a deal based on general numbers and cap rate and other factors.  

@Jordan Abernathy, If it was an older person, she most likely still had/has a landline phone (crazy, I know!).
