I suspect an appraiser that feels it would weigh on their conscience NOT to would do it, but I also suspect those would have to be major violations.  

I will certainly follow your advice, and have been using the keyword alert feature and forum search to meet those like-minded industry partners.With respect to experience, in addition to my business/finance background we have team members with experience in Development and rehab, both on major commercial developments in key markets as well as retail and industrial in several markets along the Eastern seaboard (e.g.

I only have about 15-20k I can use to invest, so I need to figure out how to get creative financing.Maybe you could consider joint ventures with homeowners who don't want to sell to wholesalers but don't have the money to do repairs themselves.I don't mean major repairs but just optimizing the appeal for a retail buyer.Once you agree on an as-is price near what a wholesaler would offer you could lock it down with sales contract.Then a joint venture contract could be drawn up that protects both parties.You would not be looking for distress sales because the homeowner needs to be able to keep paying the mortgage and has to have enough funds to move out before the work is completed.You would have to be selective about the owner and be confident they can fully understand the process and that they can pull it off.

I still have my full time job as a manager at a major retailer.
