Also for those with section 8 experience, how much work is usually needed to pass inspection, how long is the property usually vacant for and where can I find assistance for the steps along the way and all the paperwork.  

You also don't need to send physical checks, as the deposit stays in the resident's name.

Out of 282k how much taxes I have to pay right away and how much taxes I have to pay during end of tax year time.

I need someone to really lead me to a site where I can watch an actual wholesale.

I know that if I could get my foot in the door that long term profitability is relative, but entry point here is much higher.

. - Investment 25% down, but this would probably cap me at about $250,000.Wife and I are both ok with living in the property first or even house hacking if needed.

Thank you very much!

@Alex Short so you need to leave the good hands and find an agent that is an "insurance broker" meaning they can write policies for multiple companies not just the brand they work for.

Option 2: I found a house that the asking price is 930k , but I’m sure I can get a discount on it because it needs a lot of work , it doesn’t qualify for traditional financing , so I would need to take a hard money loan , it needs about 150k worth of work , the plan would be to offer the full 930k asking price but ask for a 6% seller concession , I calculated 20% down payment and 7% closing cost , so total after seller concessions comes out to 21% down payment which is $195,300 .

Sounds like you’re on a strong path, and it’s awesome to see how much you’ve already achieved.
