Diving in on some value add opportunities with a seller carry and a 5-7 year balloon contingent on appraisal. 

How did you add value to the deal?

Lots of wholesalers out there don't know how to do those 2 fundamental things.Lastly formulating an offer under fair market value with enough equity to sell the contract to an investor. 

If I use reward points for the flight/hotel/rental car, am I able to apply the value of those points to my taxes for the travel?

personal funds and family investors How did you add value to the deal?

When looking for mentorship, consider how you can add value to the mentor-mentee relationship by leveraging your strengths.
