I have read many other warm welcomes and cannot wait for my chance to meet some of the local players in my area.

Thanks,Rohit I also looked up this property and noticed two red flags.

In your examples:- Carpet stains with dirt accumulated over time are your responsibility vs. a red wine stain over a new white carpet is the tenant's responsibility.

When you attend the REIA meetings, make it a point to find the key players in the room that focus on wholesaling and rehabbing.

You may want to Google "Red Arrow Park shooting" for an example.  

Some players will stop the services.

We have built our buyers list up over 3 years attending trade shows, networking, and getting to know the players in the business.

Collect the rest of my profit either from the GC as the designer or as a separate line item on the bid.My biggest concern is if I usually clear $80k-$100k per house how to fit that into the equation without causing red flags for the bank.

Guys, I've noticed several houses in my city that have several LARGE red "D"s spray painted on them.  

There are too many people chasing too few listings in the hot West LA market.If you look at your watch, you missed the low hanging fruit in 2010 - 2011Consequently, most of the deals are going to cash heavy investors and those who see a value-add opportunity and know how to exploit it (scape and rebuild bigger, add rooms, build up, redesign, aggregate property, etc.).Suggest you go to the Los Angeles and Asian REIA that meets monthly in Arcadis and rub shoulders with players.
