We are in the midst of a bad experience with Evernest in CO.  OUr son rented from them and they have been awful to work with.

we have had an experience with Evernest in CO as renters.  Our son rented a property that was sold mid-lease and Evernest took over the property management. It has been awful!  They charge all kinds of fees, hold tenants responsible for usual wear and are even charging us for a medicine cabinet that fell off the wall because it was installed incorrectly (into drywall not stud). We are disputing the final Tenant Disposition, they demand full payment within 2 weeks or threated to file with collections. The property manager is in Mexico so there is no one local to work with around tenant issues.  Horrible experience, as a rental property owner I would never treat my tenants this way!

Venmo, so far this has worked for us. 

Wondering if anyone has a good resource for a HELOC. We were just approved by our bank after over 3 months of a process that was difficult for all. During the process, I asked several times what the terms of the HELOC would be. When we finally found out what the terms were, I rejected the loan. Looking for a no nonsense (lol) loan officer and bank.

Thanks

Are there any pre-conference get togethers or parties. 

Hello All

Does anyone have a good resource for a sewer replacement company in Fountain, Co? Or how about a reasonable tree removal service? If so, please share the info via message or here on the forums.

Thanks

OK, it is 2021. When will the 2021 BP Conference be?

Hello fellow investors.

Can anyone give me a reference for a contractor to pour a slab and build a garage in Fountain, Co?

Thanks in advance

I wanted to add my 2 cents as a contractor. 

I want to start by stating that I am only replying to general practices that I adhere to, I do not know what you have worked out with your guy. I also want to point out that just because someone is working on your flip does not make them a contractor. 

I charge in whatever way that makes my client comfortable. Simply put, if you are not paying a premium, why would I supply consumables. If you are paying a premium, I would expect to supply the consumables. I have a guy doing a flip for me in another city, his prices seem a little low to me. I supply him with all consumables. As to collecting them at the end of the job, feel free, but as one of the people here stated, act cheap...get treated like you are cheap. Most consumables are just that, consumable and if used for your job is most likely somewhere into the life of the consumable and may not be worth you collecting. 

It is important for all investors to understand that we do this to make money, not to make money for you at the detriment to us. You are in investing and should reap rewards for this, but I am not responsible for whether or not you make money. Find someone that will work with you and if you treat them right, they will be around and help you make money from your investment. One way to achieve this is to offer some type of small pay and some percentage based on your profit, that would get buy in from the person doing your work. 

I hope this helps.
