If you don't have the time to go visit then you may want to rethink this whole idea of wholesaling

I am also looking for an AZ lic RE agent who would be willing to pull comps and help me locate individuals that would advise me on the condition of the homes that I have under contract but no idea of their condition and repo assessments.

Not a bad idea - i'll do some research and we should talk. 

Your post intrigued me because I used to practice law and so am familiar with referrals from both ends.

Please give me some insight on this idea, maybe it'll work, I really see this deal being big if I can negotiate a deal.

Your training runs sound like a great idea to get to know various areas.  

So, in other words, you want to go behind the bank's back...do you think, just on the surface, that this sounds like a good idea?

I would be more than happy to see if I could somehow add some value to someone near me to bounce ideas off of and simply soak up as much as I can in exchange for whatever I may be able to assist in so that I can start taking action in a dedicated direction.

We get together and talk about what has been going on in our investments and feed off of each others information and ideas. 

That's because you usually have to go through so many deals before you get an idea what a good deal is suppose to look like.
