I still have to hire a plumber to plum the house and the electric will also need hired out.

This how and why REI gets a bad name and reputation.

If we do need to move on, any recommendations for a reputable property manager?

This is likely a dumb question, but my mentor in Driving For Dollars Wholesale trained me to learn as I go when doing repair estimates for wholesale deals and use online calculators.My goal is to develop automated processes to prepare properties I get under contract and provide quality to my cash buyers by doing some of the work for them up front and developing a standardized report for each propery we’re marketing to them.My plan After getting a propery under contract:$300 - I’d have a contractor come through and write up a Scope of Work for repairs ($160) and a plumber scope the sewer and quote any repairs ($140).

That said, your best protection is to only work with reputable wholesalers, ideally ones who have done deals like this before.

6) Do you have a team on hand to help you with your process (real estate agent, lawyer, contractor, plumber, electrician etc.)?

I look for places with a favorable renter-to-owner ratios, low crime rates, good schools, etc. 3) Hire a realtor or locate a wholesaler with a good reputation.

For me personally, I'd rather work with a local lender who's capable of closing in 14 days or less and that has a reputation for closing on time (or early) even if it costs me a fractionally higher rate.
