After years with a good company that would take late calls we had to find someone else.

Make contact with nearby property management firms, brokers, or real estate agents; they could be able to provide you with details on forthcoming events.Remember, networking and learning from others in your local community can be invaluable as you start your real estate journey.

It hasn't been decided on whether or not my company will pull the trigger with them yet, but from what I gathered pricing will depend on what all you are looking to do as in the plan/subscription you choose.

As I'm considering various strategies, I'm also interested in exploring property management options.Could anyone recommend reputable and well-regarded property management companies in the Lafayette area?

I am also 5 minutes away from the automotive company GM Headquarters and 5 minutes away from a major hospital.

Sotherland Designs is a good company.

VA should also have an option.Not sure what sort of lender you are working with, but honestly in my experience the brokers that are marketed to you through the military aren't very helpful.You still need to qualify for the reno --- basically qualify for the larger loan. 

If you can find 8% private money then you should broker it out for like 12% and make the spread.I help people scale, if you are interested in strategies on how to go about it you can message me.

I did some research and my best guess is the automated messages are being sent to phone numbers based on data from data broker websites. 

Find a mentor doing what you want to do, and get to know the local lenders/brokers you will find this to be beneficial in your real estate journey.
