Enter new to home buying guy and wife looking to buy a home in San Antonio to live in then rent out.Home listed for $220k it was a flip and was purchased for $60k less than a year ago.Exterior looks wonderful, inside looks great.Original 100yr+ hardwood floors, everything looks very shiny.As we are walking around we start flipping switches, flushing toilets etc.One toilet in particular makes a very gurgly sound that doesn’t seem right and some hall lights don’t work.Our RE agent is all about telling us to hire a General Inspector which will cost about $400 to inspect the property and tell us if anything needs to be fixed.As we look around we start to see more problems.There is a place in the roof where the roof has raised away from the house leaving a sizeable hole to the attic.There is no drip edge along the roof.The breaker box has empty slots in it that let us see into the drywall.Knowing this was a flip we investigated on another Texas State website to look at all the filed permits for the new electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and roofing, and got nothing.No permits filed at that house.Red flag?

It has s lot of equity in it and a little research has found the owner is deceased. 

Even you can do it".I had one guy that installed a countertop over existing cabinets, but i could not attach the sink clips (no space). he did not want to come back and take it out so i could install the sink with the countertop off. i spent 5 hrs cutting slots in countertops to give me access to 20" screwdriver.then i had a guy give me an estimate on windows and he flipped off when he found out i wanted him to install windows in 2 weeks.

@Frank Inman First, I want to end what @Judy P. 

Now I have more people who want to do this than I have slots to fill.

Wayne Brooks you really shouldn't have to ask for "title insurance" the title company will add that if u are going the WD route...the only time I don't ask for that insurance if I was buying homes in a package deal...where I would get a quit claim deed (pending on sources/situation) and it's up to me to either take on the risk or just spend the money on the WDs anyway Judy my humble opinion...but for sure get a WD if u can so you know you are protected

Three things that websites are good at: Holding more information prettier that a craigslist post, allowing lookie-loo-s lots of time to come and go anonymously, and maybe building your credibility if it is a nice website that provides value.

do you charge by the hour only or do you charge in 15min slots?
