Then we paid him an additional $17,500 to complete the next stage of the project (plumbing, floors, etc) but that's when everything went south.

L/O is a great strategy but you need to learn how to do it and do your due diligence.I am just buying 2 more properties using this method.

When repairing an existing home, there always seems to be some sort of a surprise... termites, underground plumbing, lots of wood-rot under the shingles, you name it... 

Get your own boots on the ground, meet the people you will rely on aka the cleaners two handmen, meps(mechanical, electrical, plumbing) contractors.

I'm considering applying the BRRR method to my own home, without renting it.

I also asked about any plumbing issues, which I would get inspected during the due diligence phase, along with other major concerns.While I don't have much experience assessing houses and determining the extent of repairs, I’ve spent a lot of time in stores like Home Depot and Lowe’s.

You’ll need to experiment with these variables until you find a method that works.These days, I’m fully invested in Google Ads, which doesn’t require data extraction and allows you to pre-screen people.Additionally, to monetize the leads, you could make a deal with a broker to get a finder’s fee (they can split the commission, but only if you’re a licensed broker).

In my opinion, the best method is to smile and dial

The exterior was painted when we bought it, we refinished the floors, added carpet, new paint inside, refinished the kitchen cabinets, replaced a couple windows and did some minor plumbing work inside (along with getting rid of TONS of junk throughout the inside and outside of the home!)

I have many years of construction experience and have also done a fix and flip, in addition to ground up construction, as well as 10 years of entrepreneurial experience running a paddle board rental company, and advancing science through developing theoretical methods for efficient large scale simulations...I guess my problem is I can't seem to figure out how to find the money to do more projects, which is why I've been trying to sell my house.
