Filp this House tv show

[Ali Young]

Its 2AM and I am up watching Flip this House on A&E and since I never watch the show I began to wonder. How many flippers watch the television shows for ideas.

Being that I am new to the industry I taken note of the following items.
1 always have a more one backup contractor.
2 never pay a contractor in advance. Only pay for supplies and then pay upon work completion to encourage completion of the project
3 having sewer smell during foundation repair often means broken sewer line and that increases repair cost substantially
4 Never give contractors the ok to sheet rock a building before inspecting it personally or having an independent party not associated with the contractor to evaluate.
5 Refinish the bathtub in a house if structurally sound in lue of replacing in lower tier houses
6 never allow contractors to leave any tools at the house

What do you think of these items? What additional cost saving measures do you use to make a house "ready"

It free to watch and you can learn something. One thing I noticed is few of the rehab actually show a sale. The show are mainly for entertainment.
