I typically subtract 3%, of the ARV.Realtor Fees: What is the commission you are willing to pay your listing agent (unless you are the listing agent) and the buyer's agent.

So if the numbers work, and he price is right ( my All-In costs ) vs the ARV and their's Immediate Equity gained once I sell the property, then why not do it ?

If the stock market were to see annual gains of 20%+ for a few years then a large number of people would stop being Saturday afternoon landlords and start being 'stock gurus'. 

Typical minimum is 1% rent to sales price so if you paid 163,000 you want to see 1,630 a month rent.

I enjoy dealing with businesses specifically retail properties.My transactions make me more than enough cash flow yearly so I do value add retail and new development for large equity growth gains on the back end.If someone makes 50k,70k etc. per year then buying a SFR can make sense over time.

This way the gains in year 1 are evened out starting year 2.Analysis methodologies1.

Welcome to BP and there is alot that you can gain from here.

I don't have any deals done yet, so how do I even begin to pitch or network myself as a "business" to gain private funding?

In order to reach this goal i need to gain the required capital to do so and my plan for doing this was to wholesale properties in my area (Delaware) and the greater Philadelphia area as well as using my carpentry background from High school to flip properties.
