I have no clue what contracts you need.

You will learn that once you go under contract.

And that's to enter contract negotiations, so this would be via LOI not a full purchase agreement. 

Obviously, I’d have to account for utilities and furnishings- I want those that have experience in this area and then maybe I could converse more on such items to look to before signing a contract.

I'm curious to hear other people's experience getting utilities activated for inspections or appraisals on HUD homes while under contract.

I leverage my AirBNBs to pickup a few contracts yearly.

Did you check a next door comp that just went into contract?

📉Yes, expired listings (listings that expired out of the MLS), were still quite high this month which can affect this number, but....What about pending (under contract in the MLS) homes this month?

I’m afraid the other wholesaler make the seller cancel my contract and leave me hanging

In addition, he also informed me he is not on contract to render me 1099 filing support and basically said I'm not going to help you, good luck on your own.
