Acting as the middleman, with a proprietary framework and system in place, would allow them to push out a lot more volume than if they had to manage the rehabs themselves. 

@Marcus wright How do you see the framework of this 90 day focus group going?

Current projects include: (1) Refinishing a wooden deck, (2) refilling a compact sand driveway, and (3) replacing a screen door (that will likely require some door frame work this time.)Also looking for a trusted plumber-excavator to replace underground sewer line.Thank you.

Super clear, gives the whole thought framework as well as practical side of the actual investing.  

Keep wrestling with this and you'll have a framework for Andy or any partner/contractor.

I know these are just frameworks but I cannot seem to come even close.Has anyone experienced similar?

In the series, I also actually found the Cashflow Quadrant (the second installment I believe) to be more useful than the first book.As for specific suggestions, I think newbies need to learn to analyze all of the REI profit centers, and compare the projected returns against the risk you are taking and the time and effort you are putting in to achieve those returns ... that is far trickier to do than just come up with a CoC return from an online calculator, but it is essential IMO if you want to succeed over the long term in the REI business (and yes, it is starting a business, just like starting any other business).To review, the profit centers of REI are:1)Cash flow (which changes over time, so don't assume year 10 will look like day 1)2)Appreciation (both forced and market)3)Mortgage Pay Down (through loan amortization)4)Tax savingsThe best way IMO to combine all of these into a single analytical framework is to project the financials from purchase to sale (or cash out refinance) and compute the IRR.

My goal is to have the idea and framework by January 1, then line up interviews with 20 guests and then launch the podcast by March or April 1.
