I am fixing to ramp up my training and buy a weight vest from www.weightvest.com They have models up to 150 pounds.

My model does include slowly increasing volume with less profitable deals.

I did find out he had no interest in carrying and type of owner financing, though.I know this does not fit the typical wholesale model, but I feel like a buy and hold guy with cash might be ok buying at 110,000 to 120,000, and if I can create a decent spread for myself than might work for everyone.

--Not legal advice--Oklahoma's laws governing business entities, like many other states', are modeled after Delaware law.In Oklahoma, we file Articles of Organization to form an LLC, and a Certificate of Incorporation to form a corporation.

If it was your first property and after buying money was tight I would schedule higher reserves and plan fro worst case scenario on cash flow model and purchase price when buying.
