I have a duplex that the tenants pay for all their respective utilities since they have their own meters, so I don't have to worry about those extra expenses.

Put all that material together so when you discuss applying for a loan you are organized.I get requests for loans and the potential borrower is not prepared. 

As someone who has always felt at odds with the traditional life script, I've realized real estate was the perfect avenue to utilize my unique skill set to build wealth for myself and my team, while simultaneously improving communities along the way.Currently I’m focused on more active investing strategies—primarily wholesaling and rehabbing—as a way to build up a base of capital to reinvest in the growth of my business.

We were very very careful to make sure this wouldn't happen because of all the interest in the property and it's common for people to pull these shenanigans to get a property under contract and accepted for a ridiculous price and then later back out and reduce the offer for the "appraised value" so we wrote a special clause into our counter proposal.On top of all this the roofer that I had hired took my $1k and ran off with the material money and also hired and scammed another roofing company that tore off the existing roof.

Also, does this $5,700 number include utility revenue.  

We've made about 8-10 offers YTD, but nothing has materialized.  

I will be utilizing being a realtor to understand real estate as whole as well as to save my commissions to fund my REI business.

Most contractors when they look at your job already know the ballpark per amount of material or room or whatever and are just deciding how much to tack on for degree of difficulty and how fancy your house looks.  

I'm hoping to learn from an  investor, perhaps as an intern, assisting and utilizing the skills I have to assist with the progress/success of their organization.
