Another scenario is if I buy a property from a wholesaler who wants me to pay all of the closing costs, what would those be based on the logic that in this case im paying both the buyers and sellers closing costs.I have purchased a few houses and I have read a few books on flipping and wholesaling, Im just having trouble understanding what values to put in the calculators to determine my Maximum offer amount.

Here are some books I'm planning on buying.

@Gabriel Lamb Start with educating yourself first: read books on mfh investing, listen to podcasts, network with other investors local at the REI meetups.

Read the BP Ultimate Beginner's Guide, then read as many books, forum posts, blogs, podcasts etc. as you can.

I am currently reading through the FLIP book which I heard about here and has a lot of information, I am currently getting multiple bids on a number of items for my current project while they are doing title search. 

Also, I have loaded up my podcast app with BP and Flipping Junkie, bought a few books, and am glued to the BP forums for the time being.If any of you would like to meet for coffee to discuss REI, strategies, or business plans, please feel free to PM me.

I heard abt it from a client of mine a while back when we were discussing the Rich Dad Poor Dad book.
