You're about to embark on an adventure where its going to seem like everyone around you is standing around with their hand out waiting for some cash.

You are going to hand out hundreds of cards for every house you sell.

One of my mentors taught us that you can drop $400-$500 on an inspection and hand out the report to your buyers, you also have it to renegotiate with the seller during your inspection period IF you find things you weren't expecting. 

On the other hand If I decide to GC the project myself I am debating back and forth as to use the same overall scope of work to hand out to the individual subs or create several specific SOW for the individual trades in order to bid the work.  

I'm not asking for freebies or looking for handouts; I'd like to bring value.

I'm going to set myself up with a Google Voice account while advertising and vetting and then hand out my personal cell to tenants who I've signed a lease with.

Every time I purchase what I consider a pleasure boat, the city/county has their hand out and apparently this is an annual thing.

These are the kind of numbers that BS artists hand out, not guys who are actually getting it done.

I’m not looking for a handout, just maybe some direction, and maybe some constructive feedback, or maybe an investor with great general contractor relationships in the NW Florida area looking to make a small profit on a home in a great area near schools and military bases. (32548)Ryan

Everyone wants to pat people on the back for starting, but way too many new investors just pop in and put their hand out for either knowledge, mentorship, money or coaching.
