Thinking about my 1st acquisition - Questions on Operation Costs
Hi all,
I am thinking about buying my very first rental property, which is a 3-bedroom, 2.5 bathrooms, single-family house in Puyallup, WA. Upon my visit, I know the house needs wall repainting, replacing bathroom tiles, installing 3 doors, and renewing kitchen sinks.
I am very inexperienced when it comes to these fixes and def want to avoid all of that work myself.
1. Who should I hire to get renovation costs?
2. How do I find people who are competent and honest on pricing?
3. Lastly, how do I find good inspectors (if I decide to buy the property) in order to look out for more serious repairs (i.e. structural, etc.)
Thank you all!
