Good Job! lets us know how it goes!

Following. I do the same thing. I feel like it cant be that easy lol

Instead of reducing price, up commission.

I asked an agent to do that a few months ago, he didn't understand why I wanted it.  I remember him saying "if they already sold. why would you care?"  haha and he claimed to work for investors only!!

Hey Biggerpockets! 

 I'm looking for help on how to do market analysis/research.  I've googled, youtubed, and questioned real estate agents trying to figure out the answer to this...

Basically, I want to find data that will show me what houses are most in demand within my market.

Clearance racks at lowes or home depot!  

Hello fellow BP-ers!

I have been working on a single family property that I bought several years ago. I have been paying cash for everything so far to date. To make a long story short. I am ready to be DONE with it!

I have been considering doing a large personal loan to help get the project finished. Once it’s done I'd refinance it and pay off the loan.

The problem is that I do not want to have the headache of having to pay a payment of $500-1000+ a month until, I am able to get it refinanced.

Is there a loan that I could get that would allow me to defer payments for a few months so?

Im thinking what I need is a line of credit. I tried getting one at the local credit union and they only could do 5,000. 

Thanks for your help!

Hello friends!

 While out "driving for dollars" my partner and I noticed alot of properties with black stains / streaks on the roof. After a bit of research we learned that the black streaking is caused by a bacteria that feeds on the limestone in the singles. Once this bacteria is established it creates an environment for more destructive pests to move in. These pests include moss, lichen, and fungus. These organisms can destroy a roof years before the 30 years they are suppose to last. COSTING YOU MONEY!

I am planning on launching a roof washing & exterior cleaning cleaning business in the spring! I will be using the latest technology, a soft wash system. Our system will operate at 200 psi so there will be little chance of causing damage and our results will last 3-4 times longer than a power wash. This is possible because we will be killing the pests, not just blasting at them with high pressure.  The results are truly amazing.

My questions to you all are:

Would you pay for a service like this?

What's your thoughts on roof cleaning?

Thoughts on pressure washing vs soft washing?

Thank you all. I'm looking forward to the responses.

Below is a link to a great youtube video demonstrating what I plan on offering.
