I'd try to keep the cat in your room with the door closed at night. 

I recommend starting close to home so you can drive to the property.

I work in corporate sales as my W2.

Currently under contract for a large off-market residential property.Quick details: 4,200+ sqft 12bed / 5bath (2 kitchens) (No a flood zone)(Light - Medium rehab / rent-by-the-room play)My partner has been a PM in this community for 20+ years and is highly confident in this deal (as am I).The current issue is, we aren't confident the property can close with a bank due to a few seller complications.( ^Very long story, but if you want to hear it I will tell you haha)We're looking to over-raise about $335k ($255k purchase and $80k for the rehab).But we (and our contractors) know the rehab portion will come in a bit lower.Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I may have a buyer - I have closed a few deals for flippers in Killeen.

The good HML companies will look at the project closely with you, to make sure they think you're on the right track. 

This is why some houses don't go off the market instantly, because the diligence fee isn't nominal.Most agents will push you to put up a considerable amount, close to 1% for the starter houses and some want you to try to do 5% for the high-end areas.

There are a few ways to accomplish this transaction: a real estate broker acting as a transaction coordinator/facilitator (not representing the buyer or seller), a real estate attorney, and/or a title company.I would opt for a licensed broker to handle the contract of sale, and hand it over to the title (or escrow) company. 

Talk to a couple of realtors in the area to get a market assessment and see what they think it is worth, how long it might take to sell and look at comparable sales for both (sales price and days on market). 

CO has a lot of land for sale
