I don’t disagree that homes will appreciate here and value will be added.

I think we'll have to disagree. 

Besides the already stated partnership and operating agreements, I've learned that when you build something with friends, the hardest part is not to agree but to disagree, meaning how the conflicts will be solved in difficult times.

Wayne, I think I disagree.

I know many of you will disagree with this - its just my two cents. 

@Ashley Ernst we disagree with @Mike PaolucciWhile he could be right and this may be "normal", the opposite is too risky.You haven't shared enough details, but what are the chances the seller is a flipper or turnkey provider who threw the first applicant they got into the property just to make a sale happen?

I work with a Cost Segregation company and we do a No Cost Analysis.We have done over 6000 studies in each and every state and we have been involved with Cost Segregation from the very beginning.Our Founder worked with one of the attorneys in the H.C.A. case (which made Cost Segregation Law),but its not about us,its about the Positive Economic Benefit that we have delivered to every one of our Clients over our 10 years of business.I Disagree with an earlier post that says you should not do a study for a building less than 5M.We have developed Processes and Protocols to deliver these studies to the small business owner.A CSSI Study is an engineering analysis that reclassifies or segregates real estate components and improvements between real and personal property in order to accelerate the depreciation periods from 39 or 27.5 years to 15, 7, or 5 years.Most of the time we suggest to run a free analysis on any Commercial or Investment Building with a cost of over $500KBy getting the numbers UPFRONT, it makes this a "Business Decision" and not a "Sales Pitch"

Also cash return is not comparable haha Respectfully disagree.

I have to disagree with Jay a bit here because the good wholesalers are more word of mouth and who you know, and you have to build a relationship with them.

If you elect to proceed with a claim, I disagree with others suggestion of filing a complaint with the state licensing agency.
