The government has regulated their hours of work to 24 hours a week rather than 40 hours.

Our needs got clearly defined last week when we tallied up the rehab cost on a midsized flip project, at $51k vs the $40k max we had budgeted.

We fixed everything in the first 3-5 weeks, plus paint, carpet, landscaping, then rented it out.

I also question whether this $700K six unit is a true 10.5-11% cap.

A couple of weeks ago, I came across an awesome off-market deal on a hundred-year-old house a few weeks ago and thought all I had to do was renovate it and I would have myself a nice little home to live in long term.

I lost nine pounds during the remodel and at the final week of work, I fell face fist off the ladder and was knocked out and suffered fractures in my face.

Quote from @Shawn Nofziger: My wife and I are both six figure earners.

While this isn't a hard and fast rule, more often then not, these are the guys that can't manage their schedules well, and will be gung-ho on your job for a couple weeks, then be flaking out as they picked up too much work and are trying to keep too many homeowners happy.And lastly, the more detail you have the better the bid will be with few change orders.  

I quit my job 2022, live off rental income and we house hack a large 3 level house with rents totally covering mortgage.She has excellent credit and six figure yearly income.

That also perhaps makes people more motivated to sell.  4-5 weeks....that's plenty of time to get a deal done.Good luck.
