So, before I address all of the points I read in this thread, can we agree on the following:- All properties in a given neighborhood will all have different market values,- The simplification of those values could be placed into the following three (3) categories;   * AS-IS (No deferred maintenance has been addressed AND curb-appeal is seriously lacking)   * Enhanced (all deferred maintenance has been addressed and some newer "creature comforts" installed)   * Optimal (highest priced, highest and best use dwelling in the neighborhood)If you agree to these simplified characterization, then the following might be agreeable: @Randy Thomason - [Good and Bad Wholesaler, Double Closings]There are good and bad wholesalers, just like there are good and bad real estate agents and brokers.

Not getting my hopes up about learning anything ...and fully prepared to have lots of people trying to sell me different flavors of snake oil.   

Bundling the two properties with some rezoning and repurposing plans is a calculated risk that could enhance the present and future property values. 

I was thinking about adding pictures in there as well to enhance the marketing package.For those of you who have hired professionals to take pictures of your property, where did you find them? 

and wait for the right imbeciles to come along to start talking to your real estate agent about enhancing their lifestyles.Imbeciles will come, Thomas.

Not to hijack the thread but I see newbie mistakes of a different flavor in my high appreciation market . 

If you know what you want to do, then read the titles of the episodes and the show notes and you will get a flavor of the topics. 

@Brandon Sturgill That's flavor right there!
