@Tyler Martin - From my stance the answer to this is rather simple.

I played around with some of the ways of looking at value in the Introduction to Real Estate Analysis article by J Scott, but whenever I think of an offer I get worried I am either insulting him or giving away all my hard work (3 years of time assembling lots and getting it through city approvals, and serving as an uncompensated GC for net zero energy certification and most of the site work).

His name is Jode Allen and I can put you in touch if you PM me here on the site. 

It depends on the documents & terms used in the deal.If you need a simple lease option document with a contingency clause, just message me.It will let you back out if you don't find a buyer, without paying anything out of pocket.

LOL if they did it'd probably crash the site

A “company” that wastes their marketing dollars mailing to houses where title transferred in the last three months and that appear to be active construction sites isn’t one I could see myself sitting down with.

What should I be looking for when I'm browsing sites such as Realtor.com?

Have them syndicate to their affiliate sites. 

Take time to research a good group and join.These are just 2 simple ways that will help whether you are trying to wholesale or find props under contract.I am new and this is where I have begun thus far

@John Wijtenburg, looking at making my first full cash offer soon but thinking a simple offer is not going to work.
