It's been a while since I've involved myself with Bigger Pockets.

Hello All,New to bigger pockets and looking forward to learn from this community and provide value where I can.

Knowing that someone who can afford a $500k house, can often also afford a $600k or even $700k, house, and will want more of everything (better location, bigger house, better finishes, etc).As for number 1, not even just paying it all up front, but working with any contractor that wants "percentage" draws.  1/3 up front, 1/3 half way done, 1/3 at completion.  

Have a system in place already if you ever grow bigger or expand, don't have to change it later or figure it out later. 

Anyone flipping or investing in the Chicago burbs, we have a small bigger pockets meet up coming up next Wednesday--reach out and I can give you details...

We joined Bigger Pockets to learn how to grow revenues and profits through the next several levels of business.   

Most big box brokerages are independently owned so you would have to join a new brokerage even if under the same umbrella.

I’m looking forward to digging into all the financial learning/resources I know I’ll find here at Bigger Pockets!
