Hello Everyone, 

Im looking to connect with some people in this group who can help me get rolling on my first few deals with Sub to/Sellers finance. I recently discovered Pace's group and all the the videos Pace has around Sub to and Sellers finance and think this is how i want to operate as a real estate investor. I would like to focus on buy and hold opportunities using these creative strategies for properties that require little to no rehab for single family residences and rent them long erm or possible STR if conditions are right. Im in the St Petersburg/Tampa area and would like to start local and would love to connect with the community and possible find a mentor/buddy to grow with. Let's connect!

Post: How Do You Manage Your Contractor During the Remodel

Hello, Im planning ahead and wondering how some of you have managed the rehab and your contract. 

Once you have the contractor/GC you are wanting to work with, how do you both set expectations of what will be done and by who? How do you create the remodel plan of what additions will be made/what things will be fixed/ or if a huge rehab-what will the layout and finishes be like? Should the contractor be able to give you a new layout design?

What about all the material? Generally, who's responsibility is it to purchase the required material? If it is the contractor's, how do they know what material to buy when it comes down to finishes and the style of the rehab? Is it up to their discretion?
