Some were wholesalers that we've been in contact with before they started using Investor Lift, some are outfits that we found through browsing the available properties on the platform.I've thought about joining as well as we'll wholesale deals that don't meet our investment criteria from time to time... as an agent though I lean towards buying personally, assigning directly to a client, or listing more frequently than wholesaling, so I'm just not doing enough wholesaling volume to justify the $479/mo price tag.

Less hassle overall, and no issues so far *knock on wood*.Since I will be outfitting all 3 units at once and costs are high, I'm considering buying some appliances used. 

Also on same topic is there a similar turnkey outfit in NJ?

PHEW.. bad out fit that NW RE for allowing a client to suffer like this. 

Do you want to flip props yourself or invest with an outfit that handles the buying, refurbing, marketing themselves?

I usually get my engineering structural calculations from this outfit. 

There are still some truly high quality TK outfits around -Spartan (of course), Memphis Invest, Decas etc - but unfortunately investors do need to take ownership of their due diligence to avoid these kind of scams that are all glossy marketing and no substance. 

Most offer $0-100 EMD, not $5000 (just look through forum posts on the subject).The larger outfits probably can, but I see more people discussing clauses to get out of wholesale deals, than ways to close if they can’t find a buyer.I’m not saying everyone should go realtor verse wholesaler, as it seems most wholesale deals the seller wasn’t even a seller until contacted, and that to me is where the wholesaler stands out (marketing to potential leads).

Most of the people looking for arbitrage targets look for one-off Mom/Pop outfits that work off some lease they drew up in 10 minutes on Microsoft Word or a notepad, where subletting isn't explicitly prohibited.Because, again: if I have a property, and it can make more money STR than LTR, what sense does it make to give Broke Joe the keys when I can just make the money myself?

If you are looking to do it in Ohio then James Wise on here has a big outfit up there.
