She claimed I was a liar and a cheat even after I sent her screen shots of her work and Scott's.

Hard work and research will lead your way.

The tricky part is maintenance, I had the renters do the work and send me the receipts for material.

You can't do everything, so you need to figure out what works where you're going to work, and what appeals to you.3) Finances.

(my mentor/captin currently has a few rental properties, he's wholesaled, reahabbed and resold) so i planned to call the guy monday with the offer but i got little busy at work and and besides i was was hesitant anyway b/c i thought i screwed up and i just didn't think he would go that low. so this morning i had a meeting with a guy from realnet usa, they loan money to investers, buy/sell properties etc. and during the meeting the gentleman hands me a list of available properties he currently has on contract and lo and behold at the bottom of the list is the very property i vistied this weekend. they're selling for 52k with a 95k ARV with estimated rehab @ 15k. i didn't say anything i played it cool and finished the meeting, we exchange info and i went on my way. once i got outside i beat myself up pretty bad(mentally of course) for not going with my gut feeling but again i was hesitant b/c i've never done this before and that was actually my very 1st time meeting with a seller and feeling good about a particular property. all others i looked at did not seem good for me @ the time. i called my wife vented and got back to work and called my mentor/captin but havent talked to him yet. and even called the invester who originally showed me the property ( i didn't mention anything) i just gave him some info he requested and told him to keep calling me when he has properties available and he gave me one right away and asked could i go out to check it out. i guess i wrote all this to say first off i'm a little discourage, not enough to ever quit of course but enough to feel like a total moron and second.... i don't know i just would like some feedback. sorry for the long read guys and gals :violin: but i must admit i feel a tad bit better now. thanx!!

Most of the people in this arena are not in their late teens, but that is what makes guys like you and I unique.Keep up the good work and you have my respect for taking your first steps to financial freedom.

Always leave a "weasel" clause in your offer, subject to inspection, etc.Watch an inspector do his work and learn what the big deal killers are.

Remember, all you need is hard work and the desire to succeed, an you will!

Also, in a market that is hot with cash buyers lined up around the block to buy it on the spot with no funky terms it just won't work and why should it since it may be more work for the seller?

If your doing the work and have done it before and know it can be done quickly I would do it 100%.
