Hi  @Scott Pigman... can you tell us the outcome, if there were fines or suspension or revocation?

Thanks!

Post: Quit Working to Focus on Real Estate

I did it - I quit my job 3 weeks ago!  Closing on our first flip tomorrow (would have been 10 days ago but underwriting kept throwing a wrench in the spokes!) - purchased for $150k, sold for $250k in 3 mos.  

I feel the same way, want to focus 100% - I am eager and willing to put in hard work and time.  

Good tips on the 2 yr waiting thing... my husband has his own business too so hopefully that will help in this area.

Note this is a short sale already bank agreed on price after 2 appraisals.  Will be going on market for $245 soon if no takers!  Does back to 104th Ave but noise does not seem to be a concern.   Is currently occupied, will only show to serious buyers.

PM me for more info, thanks!

Yes we are selling. 

My concern is now it won't pass inspection from the buyers inspector then what?  What if state farm won't cover it, then we have more than the deductible to worry about paying for.  I have my original emails requesting insurance for the FLIP/rehab, wouldnt I have a leg to stand on if they were to try to say i'm not covered because it was the wrong policy type?

They knew our intent so not sure why they gave us renters policy!  They would only do a one year, which we paid for at closing, $800 about.

Hi, so I've been here watching and reading for 6 mos now and after buying our first investment property Oct 15th we are ready to list!  YAAA - and a big thanks to my hubby who did 80% of the work, he did an awesome job!  I will post before and after pics later. But I am stressed out after receiving a call from State Farm that we have the home insured through.  They first inspected it prior to our buying it, and just today call to say the roof needs to be replaced and has weather damage!  Our own inspector we hired (as required by the hard money guys) said it was in decent shape and only needed a few repairs (also in Oct).  I asked them why it has taken them 3 entire months to tell us this, and 2, how could their inspector have a different opinion than our inspector?  I understand opinions will vary slightly but this is huge!

We are waiting to hear back from our inspector but his report clearly does not say it needs replaced.

help?  anyone ran into this before?  We certainly didn't budget for a replacement and its almost too late now anyway!
