Need opinion from experienced BRRRR expert!

[Ryan Cooper]

Hi everyone

I'm starting my BRRRR journey with my business partner. We are currently starting out our first 'B' phase and using BRRRR calculator on multiple properties a day trying to get in a good rhythm of being able to confidently and quickly run numbers. While doing so, we realized that our current weakness is estimating for renovation costs. I would love to hear from you about any of the followings:

1. What is some of your "tricks" or "rule of thumb" when estimating renovation. 

2. What are your favorite/go-to ways to find contractors for renovations that checks off on credibility/efficiency/pricing

3. What are the type of renovations that you recommend others to avoid due to: taking too long / expensive / not worth the renovation?

4. What are your go-to cost effective renovations that appreciates your property the most?

5. What is the typical timeline to expect or use as a guideline when planning for renovation? 

6. Please feel free to share any other tips, tricks, opinions, or any other comments relating to this !

Thank you so much in advance for your time and for sharing your thoughts. I'd also love to connect with you guys and be more involved in this community to share ideas and experiences as I continue on my journey!
