After that you will feel better and have some questions for your attorney when you meet with them. 

Determine if property currently meets the 1% rule (Asking price vs Monthly Rent)3.  

Greetings everyone, My name is Vincent LaMotte, I am currently prepping to jump in to Wholesaling,  I am interested to see if there are any other Whole Sellers in the Los Angeles area that I can meet up and network with.   

Just out there looking to network and meet some potential partners for larger multi family deals!

Even if paying contractors and building a team to do 100% of the work, meeting contractors, viewing properties, etc all take time away from a "real" job at best and more likely than not require time during work hours to do these and move quickly and efficiently. 

Yes, appreciation is nice, and important, but similar to @Jason DiClemente, I'm looking for COC to meet my criteria as my primary goal.  

Until then, I will work to enjoy the journey and the people I meet along the way.

But you should reach out to @Drew Walls he's well versed in all things FHA and lending in general

Hello all, finally put a profile pic up, now hopefully I can meet and network with some amazing people with a passion for real estate.

If you can move into a place and work on it, saving yourself overhead, protecting your project, those can be good things and you'll also meet the neighbors and probably pick up more deals that way.
