@Grant Rothenburger agreed. No way around good planning and doing your homework.

Exactly, I've never done it that way, I'd only use that as an estimate if you were looking at a house online or something. I wouldn't ever use that for real numbers.

@Grant Rothenburger just chiming in here as I am interested in something similar. I'd read an article from another investor on BP mentioning that oftentimes you can take the property sq ft x avg repair costs per sq ft in that area. You'd then base your deal on the outcome. Is this accurate? Sounds dangerous haha.

 This is a way to quickly get a number, yes. But, this would be a rough idea more than concrete numbers. It may work out, but I feel like more often than not your buyer would go over budget, and your business would suffer from selling bad leads.

I agree with @Marcus Auerbach, even if you pay more now, you'll save money with a good LVP in the long run.

I shall be there, looking forward to meeting a lot of you!

@Grant Rothenburger not my first deal.  15th or so.  The way I handled the construction, you would think it was my first lol.  Went $100k over budget.  

I was just surprised, if it was your first deal, it was quite the undertaking!

You know I hate to see a couple brothers going the wrong way on the scale.  

I'll tell you my secret.  As the 10x Napper you know it's gotta be easy and convenient.

Don't eat if you're not hungry!  That's it!  I love intermittent fasting.  Worked up to a steady 16 off, 8 on. Sometimes I forget and do 18 off.  Cut carbs and don't eat in the morning until you are hungry.  

There's a couple tricks about hydration and getting electrolytes and potassium without eating all over youtube.  Check it out and good luck!

 While I appreciate the note, I meant I'm actively trying to gain weight in the gym. Naturally a skinny guy, packing on the LBS.

You MUST RSVP to attend! To learn more and to RSVP CLICK HERE.

This is a monthly meetup held the last Tuesday of every month. Hosted by @Joe Fairless with some help organizing from yours truly!

Our Agenda:

1. Networking & pizza from 6:30pm to 7:00pm

2. Presentation starts at 7:00pm 

    Get an update on the Cincinnati real estate market with multiple real estate professionals. We'll be discussing where the market is in comparison to this time last year, and where they see the market going for the rest of 2019.

    - Panelists include:

    - Peter Chabris, owner and executive of The Chabris Group. The Chabris Group has sold over $60 Million in real estate each of the past two years, primarily consisting of single family homes valued under $500k. On the off chance that Peter cannot attend, the team's leading agent, James Harriswill sit on the panel for him. James is responsible for 108 of their home sales last year all on his own!

    - Kurt Weil, mortgage broker with Zipfel Capital. Kurt helps investors secure financing for everything from single family homes to large apartment complexes. In July of 2019 alone, Kurt is set to close on over $16 Million in real estate loans.

    - @Slocomb Reed, became a house hacker in 2014 and currently lives in his second house hack with his wife and two-month-old daughter. Has bought and sold 34 flips and 24 buy-and-hold properties, totaling 75 units, for himself and his clients. His lead generation experience includes postcards, yellow letters, driving for dollars, door knocking, and cold calling. Slocomb currently owns and manages 18 rental units, some with partners, he and a partner are under contract to purchase a 24-unit property in August.

3. Go through 60 second update

4. Remaining time for more networking, doors close at 8:30pm EST. A lot of people will hang out outside afterwards (weather permitting).

5. Post goals for next meetup in the Facebook group

The $2.50 fee (plus $.84 for Eventbrite processing = $3.34) is simply for accountability. This way we cut down on people RSVP-ing and not showing up, taking away tickets for people that would have showed up (and it buys pizza for the group) :)

Feel free to email me with any questions [email protected]

@John Maynard

Really depends on the bank, but yes, that's common.
