In my experience many unlicensed wholesalers operate in a grey area and often cross over into what is obviously brokering real estate without a license. 

This means you can focus on growing your portfolio with confidence, knowing that every aspect of your investment is being handled by experts.As for my experience, I've been in the industry for over 10 years. 

We are so new to this and have no experience.

All channels can work, but in my experience, the greatest oppportunities often pop up when you know exactly what your returns need to look like and keep your ear to the ground in your market.

What would be my best route to take if we need additional finances?

Then if I have additional concerns I call in an expert to get further information and an estimate on what the repair will cost.

Any details you can provide would be helpful.Since I have the next 12 months to plan for this, I am open to any additional feedback/suggestions on what else I should think about.

Activities that deal with electrical or plumbing should be outsourced to avoid more expensive issues unless you have some prior experience with the simpler repairs in each.

With your experience working in building materials this could come easier to you.
