We will require workman’s compensation, general liability, builders risk, and a performance bond from any company that wishes to bid.

I could be wrong, but my research has shared that the experienced investors are taking action right now and investing into these deals and getting their cash out of equities and bonds.

My balance sheet strengthens with every single purchase.

@Jim Hartmann totally get all that (i used to trade bonds)

You need to demand those invoices because what if the workers she hired aren't bonded?

As an investor dealing with a person who calls themselves a wholesaler, I am immediate suspicious and suspect that person is someone with little knowledge, no license, not bonded and someone who took a quick down a dirty seminar in a motel room from someone way out of town.I want to see their contract of sale.

I would recommend leveraging your equity in some way even if it is to pull it out to to place in RE, stocks, bonds, REIA, notes.  

Many states require an office, phone, hours of operation being posted, insurance, bonding, a business sign and escrow accounts.

The bond is further strengthened by promptly answering questions from borrowers.

I will throw DJT back in the 80's with his version of junk bonds, I mean syndications (as they are now called for the smaller players).
