@Jacob Garcia no needs to get an agent involved, the wholesaler probably has a preferred title company (the one mentioned on the original PA with the seller), get in contact with them, and review the closing docs. 

Obviously I would prefer the bigger valuation, but this is my first large deal and not sure how it might be evaluated.

I currently use some free resources but was wondering what everyone prefers to use.

Looking for an accountant in Anne Arundel County(preferably) who can help me with tax preparation and planning. 

You should be able to buy and hold or fix & flip depending on your preference.

Lots of lenders are needing 20% minimum, preferably 25% down, and the rate will vary with your credit, debt ratio, etc.

Which do you prefer to do more?

I actually prefer to call my flips "Charms", as I put my time, heart, and soul into the projects.  

I don't think my strategy was to be my own gentrification machine; more important to me was that I bought houses in the geographic area I thought had the best long-term outlook, combined with ease of self-management and homes that fit my preferred tenant base.
