But Looks solid to me !

southern first is solid, i personally use mortgage brokers vs banks, but southern first is great. 

I would do the following:Improve credit score to get the best ratesBuild a strong relationship with your lender(s)Have a solid cash reserveIncrease all credit lines/limitsBut I don't think there's much he can do now, most of the above takes years to do. 

You can build a solid power team during this down time so you're ready to run when COVID-19 is over.

The owner posted a FSBO and i contacted him asking if he was willing to sell. i am completely unsure on how to run comps on this property. its strictly commercial, it used to be a barbershop. how would  i go about not losing this lead and making a solid but fair offer in which i can wholesale it and still allow the buyer to make a profit?

If you've chosen a solid market, know your cost to hold/maintain, know the market demand and resale history - let the self-doubt go. 

I am still getting solid returns.

Most people within BP indicate that they are satisfied or very satisfied with what they offer (eg good cash flow, strong market, solid ROI, helpful information - especially working with Zach). 

Without knowing your specific home I can't say for sure but there is a solid chance you can sell even though you have not owned the home long and did not have to put much down. 

I would imagine private lenders will have more to lend as well... if the deal is great, the business plan solid, and borrower stable... you have much in your favor.
