What do you mean by "true"?

It almost seems too good to be true.

Hi Friends,I am looking to flip in the Tampa area and I'm in touch with a few Wholesalers and Realtors there.I have received multiple properties from them; however, I am always concerned that their ARVs are inflated, ...

Quote from @Pierre Guirguis: Portfolio execution can absolutely work here, but it’s very detail-dependent, especially when it’s stepping in midstream on a construction deal.A few things would matter right away:• current as-is and projected stabilized value• remaining construction scope and budget• in-place debt and timeline pressure• whether this needs to close as a true portfolio hold or a bridge-to-permSanity check all you want!!

This is the true test of the Architect, and the true test of the relationship between the Architect and client. 

Very true, especially in the Winter time.

Many time worthless strips of land are sold at these auctions. 3) Know the true value of the property.

Two things I can think of that others might not do - we installed electronic heated bidets in every cabin and we provide USB/AC/Wireless chargers at every nightstand. 

Are you willing to speculate on an up and coming area for a flip for big money possibly or do you prefer tried and true neighborhoods with less potential profits?

@Martin Penn there is really no bad ideas in this biz only bad execution, well that's not true there are some bad ideas, but starting with REITS is a great idea from where I'm standing.
