@Jewell ArceneauxHow to drive ARV (my opinion)Improvements that drive the ARV the most: Roof, New Kitchen & Bathrooms, Flooring, PaintImprovements that DON’T drive the ARV as much: Windows, Landscaping, Driveway, Rough Plumbing & Electrical

Your cleaner (have a back up one you use as well I suggest) from Turno or local Facebook groups and then handyman, electrician, HVAC, plumber, landscaper, etc from local facebook groups, thumbtack, or google. 

Also, fly out to visit the market, tour properties, and understand the local landscape before committing.Indianapolis offers a mix of opportunities for cash flow and appreciation, so defining your investment goals is key.
