@Max Horn it is super important to get multiple bids and talk to multiple people on a project like this. There will be a lot of Contractors who say they can help with this, but not many can. Working with the city to add another unit is difficult, especially if you do not have that relationship. I suggest speaking with @Bruce Runn as he has done conversions in minneapolis. He is his own GC, but he may have a good list of contacts for you

@Ana Vergara thank you for sharing! I may stop by soon as I am furnishing my next rental soon. Just a heads up google maps still has your building as mattress monster and it says permanently closed. 

@Michael Wade I have an amazing window contact. Message me and I will connect you

@Massimo Wongbi you will have to use cash to buy an auction property so not where you want to start. I would advise you to network with people who are doing deals in our network and go to meetup groups. Feel free to message me about this

@Samuel Lindgren I have great snow and lawn guy. Message me and I can connect you

@Lucas Anderson the numbers in saint cloud are a lot more favorable than the metro area for sure. But SCSU is failing, they are 18.3 million in debt and don't have the money to keep running. They are actively canceling just about every major there outside of teaching and nursing. If you want to purchase for student rentals just know there is a lot of negative happening right now.

Message me and I can connect you with a local wholesaling facebook group where you can find forms, knowledge and buyers.

@Cory Binsfield knob and tube is very common in rental properties in the twin cities. There are a few investors I know who have been able to get coverage with known knob and tube, most often people try to not know about it. If you need a very good affordable electrician to replace it message me and my electrician will be able to help

Welcome @Annette Weber! There is so much great information on BiggerPockets and on their podcasts! I am also in the area and know of several great meetups you should attend! Message me and I will let you know all about them!

@Mark ODay there is very limited bookings during the winter in minnesota unless you are in an area people still need to travel or there are activities in the area. Lake Minnetonka is not a lake that has much for winter activities. You have the chilli cookoff thing but that is really about it. If you can't rent it for the summer months I would expect you to lose money your first year.
