This allowed Jerry Scott and Chad Wolfe to focus on the execution of the project without needing to invest their own capital upfront, ensuring a streamlined process from start to finish.

I am just getting started, but willing to learn as much as possible.

@Robert Kline, I would start by talking with your local building department. 

@Jordan Miller most Class A & B rental properties bought since 2021 really don't cashflow from day one.Class B will take 1-3 years to start showing cashflow.Class A, 3-5 years.Current investors keep making the mistake of looking back at deals from 5-10 years ago when prices & interest rates were both a lot lower, but NOT rental rates.

I've been looking at some properties and before I get started, I wanted to know does anyone have any reputable General Contractor/Contractor along with property manager in Columbus, GA because I haven't had much of luck in that department yet?

Not sure if there's a lesson to be had there, but that's how I found it.I'll say though that once you know what you're looking for and create an industry specific network, you start to find them with some frequency.

You really need to decide on what is most important and then start looking. 

The learning curve for plumbing is a nightmare, you'll spend a lot of trips to the store and get frustrated starting over constantly. 

But about 1 year after we bought the property, they started cracking down on the homeless in downtown Jacksonville moving the crime to the neighborhoods just outside of Jacksonville.
