Also, if you're successful, that means more businesss from you, as well as favorable referrals from you.Sometimes these companies provide a financial incentive if you both purchase a property and utilize their lending services.Identify a good listing agent that will sell your property, and ask them to help validate the ARV of the properties from the wholesale company that you are considering, so that you have an expert second opinion.If you've got the money to pay $25k to FB, then you should have enough cash (I'd think) to do a rehab deal with HM financing.Now you may not make much on your first deal due to your inexperience, but lean on the wholesale company.

Despite your inexperience, you're ahead of many of the people here.

When I started in 2013, I got 3 properties under contract with the first 4 months but each of them fell thru due to my eagerness and inexperience...I've been struggling since I got back going.

I don't take on anyone anymore.Agents took up a bunch of my time and basically because of inexperience I end up training them and doing most of the deal for them and collecting only a small portion of the commission.

Please forgive my inexperience if I am in the wrong place.I am looking to buy my first home and obviously I want to maximize the upside potential.

Your biggest risk by far is going to be inexperience.

In this case, each phase is usually put out to bid separately.This sounds like a difficult project to oversee from a distance given your inexperience in the construction phase.

My inexperience is with developing a goals.

I'm still a little bit confused and I'm definitely showing my inexperience with this post but here goes...So I'm figuring that Brianna wants to figure out her ROI (EXCLUDING) the money she is putting to the side for future repairs.I mean, please correct me if I'm wrong (@J Scott), but couldn't the money she is saving towards future CapEx expenses, just be seen as another monthly / yearly expense and factored into the NOI calculation??

If that's unfair, then it was only my inexperience in the area that makes it unfair.
