First let me say I'm not sure if I picked the Right area for this topic. 

I have a question about trash outs-clean outs. 

I'm licensed as well for doing Clean outs. But I have only done them for the company I work for. 

If I wanted to start doing them for banks and people that have bought homes full of stuff. How would I go about doing that?  

As in actual steps...  

I enjoy staying busy so I'm always looking for things to do on the side.  

The company I have been working for is moving out of Florida to Arizona. 

I rehab homes for them and I'm licensed for the state of Florida. They produce alot of homes here in Florida.  But once they move the homes Will be cut in half here. 

My question is...  Is it at my advantage to branch out that far?  I have been thinking about branching out into Georgia from Florida but never considered Arizona. 

Also, if I wanted to buy my first distressed property is it hard to do?  As in purchase and flip?  

Unfortunately no. The hot water tank sits in back bedroom in the corner and the bathroom is on the other side of the wall of the hot water tank.  The middle room which is going to be a huge walk in closet has a small closet in it that has the hoses and stuff for shower and tub in wall.  

Any way I could move hot water tank to that closet? The furnace is in hallway wall and Theres no room for hot water tank there. 

Helping a friend rehab a single wide trailer that was given to her. It isnt much the basic three bedroom two bath trailer. ( second bath is tiny and in tiny bedroom off the living room.) Already had the wiring updated and refloored entire trailer.  

She wants to turn the middle bedroom into a huge walk in closet .

The back bedroom holds the water tank in the corner of the closet.  Any ideas for the water tank?  Maybe enclose it and decorate around it.  Or is it easier to move it elsewhere?

@Rick thank you for your response. 

@kelly thank you as well. 

Made sense.  

The job I have been doing is. Going in and painting full interior and exterior of homes,  changing out fans,  lights, faucets and etc. Also doing all the prep work. We do floor work such as tile sometimes and etc. 

I don't do Ac work or rewiring of electrical. 

I basically do the basics for people including pool decks, replacing screens and mow, mulch, trim yard work.  

I don't mind the work at all that I do.  I actually like it. 

The homes that we been doing gets filmed on camera after completion of job and sold on TV. 

I'm wanting to advance though and I'm always up to learn New things.  I have a aunt that Works For remax and she's taught me alot.  

I generally work seven days a week on homes and Ive had no complaints with our work.  I'm wanting to pick up more work though and learn as I go.  

I think I may attend a auction and go to a meeting as well. Thank you for that advice to.
