I plan on make money on the purchase of the property and when it comes time to sell I should make money then.With no disrespect meant, it's clear you're new to investing and you're setting yourself up for failure because you lack the requisite knowledge needed to evaluate the validity of a prospective deal. 

However I would like to start building a portfolio of cash investors and seeking out prospective properties for them (wholesaling).

seriously now.. i thought i was being mutually discreet by NOT requiring the SS# directly on the application, nor even charging an application fee, for my own properties (as opposed to properties i PM for).but one of today's prospective tenants who seems to meet income requirements (on paystub with SS# blotted out) has refused to provide SS#,,, to the credit bureau itself!

As people become experienced landlords you learn it is all a negotiation to try to get the best outcome for yourself and keep the cash flow coming in again.You could be a stickler on the security deposit.

Our best performing prospect groups are tax foreclosures, evictions, code violators, and bankruptcy. 

Inventory is a bit of a problem, but you are close enough to be able to really dig in and research the town and anything available there.I also like the prospects in Milford.In the Monadnock area where I live, some towns strike me as opportunities, others seem to have no long term future.  

A good CPA can help walk you through how to get the best tax outcome for the transaction.

You could try prospecting to the students, but generally I dont think it will get any better there.
