Does anyone have any recommendations on where to buy new/scratch&dent appliances in DFW? No used appliances.

Just bought my first SFH to fix-n-flip in DFW. Who is currently flipping in this area and wouldn't mind sharing some of your knowledge? :) It would be much appreciated.

What do I need to look for when getting a homeowners insurance policy on my first fix-n-flip property in DFW (Texas)? 

Which company do you recommend?

Hello! 

I just bought my first investment property a few hours ago at an auction.  I'd love feedback on the online auction process. 

I'm also needing a good contact for a CPA who specializes in real estate. 

Thanks for the help!

If anyone has any tips or connections with private lenders in DFW please shoot me a message.  Also,  what are some alternative funding avenues? I'd like to stay away from hard money if possible.

They work in the same area.  I've been using the same agent every time but I also hate to rely on all my leads coming from one person.  Obviously other than the ones i find on my own.

I have always heard that you pay your bird dogs a finders fee. My plan is to pay the finder (licensed agent) a fee then use my own agent to buy and sell the property. When speaking with an agent today.. she mentioned it is illegal to accept the money.

Is it illegal to pay an agent (bird dog) a "finders fee" in Texas if they do not represent you on the buy or sale?
