Hi Dazrell,

My personal strategy has always been to outsource as much as I can and focus on creating deals. If that's also you, I'd recommend finding a realtor and working with them to build that list and take control of the process and pay them their standard commission for doing all the hustle.

If you'd rather avoid the realtor and keep more of the profits, that seems like a good starting list. Also, make sure the foundation is in good order, look at any seller's disclosure documents (required in some states like mine, Minnesota) and also make sure there are no contractor Lien's on the property.

Excited to hear about your acquisition!
