Getting started fix and flip
What is the order to fix and flip your first house? Do you find contractors first and project managers first? Or do you find a deal first? Thank you guys

Hey Douglas,
From my experience the best case scenario is to have a team established first, of people you can trust. On the contractor side of it making sure your contractor is good with investor friendly numbers. That way when you find the right deal you just need to lock it up then there is no time in between to let a deal sit and you can get rocking and rolling right away!
Hope this helps, feel free to reach out with any other questions in this space!
