I would think you’d have a stack of good applicants to pick from in a fine community like that !

Hello BP Community, My partner and I (2 people) have a property under contract and are working through the closing process.

Hello BP community,I live in New Orleans, LA and would like to break into real estate investment with rental properties. 

Welcome to the BP community.

Glad to be part of a great real estate community!

I'm new to the BiggerPockets community and very excited to join. 

Hey BP, First off I want to thank the BP community.

I only invest in areas where the local government/communities have good long term strategies in place.  

And I'm having a hard time convincing our bank to allow this large a check deposit through the mobile apps (when they have one, ugh community banks sometimes)... unless we want to upgrade and pay for the privilege of their "treasury services".Thoughts?

so to play devils advocate Pratik  if the property will sell for 200k and you negotiated 150k  and in Sac you could list it on MLS for 200k an sell it in a matter of hours for all cash.. what value do you bring to this deal for the seller.. they would net closer to 185k than 150k I see this all the time that wholesaler bring value in some markets I get that especially low value super rough areas that are underserved by the RE community but I fail to see the value proposition you bring when you make these kinds of margins.. how do  you explain this to the seller that their home which you KNOW is going to sell for 200k is only worth 150k because you want a big pay day.. how is that bringing value.. ( just playing devils advocate this morning and curious of your response or rationalizing this )
