I got a very good price on the building (about $25k per door), but it was a ton of work as in addition to tenant issues, there was TONS of physical distress (foundation repairs, sewer line and water line repairs, electrical upgrades, new roof, and apartment renovations needed for all units). 

That alone could ruin the outlook for you, so just make real sure of the physical condition of the property.

If you have any recommendations for brokers in the Atlanta area please let me know.Thanks  Physical in person classes is much easier.

I personally could give a rip about the buyers safety if they dont know any better and get wiped out so what.. but Sellers thats a whole different matter.. a sub 2 gone bad can destroy them financially emotionally physically break up marriages etc etc.

Digitize physical receipts for easy storage and use a consistent naming convention for easy sorting - 2024.03.25 Home Depot.Maintain proper records, such as contracts, settlement statements, and promissory notes.Additionally, you can track income and expenses consistently using software or spreadsheets.As you scale, if bookkeeping isn't fun, consider hiring a bookkeeper for a couple hundred bucks per month.

You need to stay strong physically and mentally, and I sincerely hope you will figure a way out.If the property is located in a not very safe area, at least try to install some security camera system that works when you are not there.

The second draw is paid when we arrive on site and start physical work .

I would like to pass on a little bit of useful information for anybody thinking of converting their permit over to owner-builder. 1 - You will not be able to sell the property for a minimum of 365 days from the date of issuing of the CO. 2 - The property must be for the owner's own use and occupancy and not for sale or lease which means you will not be able to rent it out. 3 - The owner-builder must ensure that all employees working on the project have the required licenses.4 - The owner-builder must provide worker's compensation as required by Florida law.5 - To apply for the owner builder permit, you must physical visit the building department.There are others requirements and conditions, however these are the main items.

Physical inspections can reveal a lot about the condition of the property.

It really made me feel better beacause now that I know the site is physically existing!
