Hi @Jordan Moguel - I think that it's important to have the loan officer analyze your income docs, credit and assets so that they can 1) figure out what you can qualify for and 2) put together a legitimate loan estimate for you.

If you send them the property, repair costs and estimated ARV they'll crunch their numbers and see if they can help.Thanks and best of luck! 

@Jeremy KerrProps for stepping out of your comfort zone.To be honest, your worth in this particular deal is whatever the experienced large scale investor thinks it is (assuming you have no finder’s fee written contract in place.)Ballpark estimate in my opinion is that finding the deal might be worth 5% to 10% of the deal pending structure of the deal.If the large scale investor is a person of character and integrity, he should provide some form of compensation given your relationship with this person.My suggestion would be to not focus on the compensation per se but try to learn as much as you can from this person during the evaluation of the deal.

Hello all, we recently received a new estimate from our GC on a flip property in San Antonio and the new estimate is about 50% higher than their initial one (the one prior to buying the home from the wholesaler to flip/receiving hard $$, etc).

You need someone to find the properties for you, someone to honestly evaluate them, take pictures for you, give you an approximate rehab cost estimate, someone to do the rehab and solid property management.

I am looking for a General Contractor for an estimate in Lake Jackson.

Have you used a different method to accommodate rising prices in your budget estimates?

In my defense, it’s difficult to estimate the value and rehab costs of a property you can’t see because you’re on the other side of the planet.

Also, I'd be curious to hear from any flippers in the Atlanta area what you would pay for the home 'as is' and I would also be willing to provide my contractor's rehab estimate and inspection report.
