How to save material cost
I'm getting my first investment property (2-family/ duplex). I've been following BP for 6 months now. I jumped in with both feet and I'm very excited. I'm based in NYC, and the property is in upstate/ Hudson Valley. The property is in good condition, and I just need to change out the kitchens, bathroom sinks, etc. Could someone share with me any tips about how to save money on material cost? My sister told me to look at Craigslist (people either give away material or sell for a low cost) and I discovered FreeCycle.org. I wonder if there are more resources out there my fellow, more-experienced investors can share with me. Thank you so much!
