When I do a google search of auction dot come I see so many bad reviews for hidden fees, delayed closing and some refusal to sell even though they met the minimum price. 

Be careful that you never ever make money charging back utilities like you mentioned.

If you are able to get a loan, I would bet your leverage would only be 50-60%, so you are looking at 150k -250k. net of fees.

Normally people file a police report and the file that report with each company claiming they are owed money with results in those charges being removed from their account.

They include cell-based meter communication in their monthly fee which, based on the features that I want, looks like it will cost just under $18/month for my triplex.

@Brannon Randle check Louisiana's real estate laws, but in many states you don't need a real estate license to wholesale, which is essentially assigning rights in a contract for a fee.

The best thing you'll get from some of the intros is a few useful materials that will whet your appetite for more information.Your money might be better spent if you can partner with a mentor or coach who can walk you through your first deals in exchange for a fee.

For anyone local who refers a tenant to me, I'll be offering a referral fee of $100 to them personally or $125 to the charity of their choice.What I wanted to do is talk to the neighbors around the unit, the owner of the local cafes (one of whom is also very involved in the large local Pagan group), maybe the head of the rotary club, and local religious congregation heads about it.

$ Fast Close$ There is no need for an appraisal$ No Fees$ No Repairs$ No commissions$ There is no closing costs, since there is no transfer of mortgage holder.

I'm skeptical because of there up front consulting fee of 9.99% and the fact they charge monthly 2% of what you have borrowed instead of 2% divided by 12 to arrive at your monthly payment.
