I'm essentially going nuts where I am now and would prefer to find a way to resume the life I enjoyed in California.

Absolutely make use of all the online tools available throughout the processEvaluate resumes and reviews/recommendations from trusted resouces, peers and past clients (like you would on LinkedIn for example)Narrow down your search to the top candidates and schedule in-person interviewsChoose your top 3-4 final candidates and check referencesThen ask at least three to provide bids for your scope of work requiredEvaluate the bids and pick your top candidate...then there is one crucial step left...Make sure to take an in person look at the physical finished work your final chosen contractor has done recently.Like almost everything else in real estate, choosing a great contractor requires time and effort.  

I plan to resume flipping full time and start the BRRRR strategy after building up some reserves.

If current fed gov't plans keep rolling in the same direction, well in WI we burn lots of coal right now, they want to just kill that off sooner or later and that's not good for our future rates and one bit of useless trivia I know is that IL has more nuclear plants than any other state, not sure where that concept is headed after what happened in Japan, but I doubt it will help to lower costs for nuke plants!

I can send you my resume plus credentials of work I have done in the past.But also I would be building up a buyers list on Craigslist.

I still love BP, but found several on here, even those held out as "so called experts" when I met them in real life found their online resume to be fabricated and embellished. 

I have looked through several resumes and narrowed it down to 3 people who have excellent experience working for some of the big name apartment complexes and property management companies in town.

I’ve been waiting to see if my new property would consistently produce cash flow as well as needing to finally finish my NRC exam to obtain a Reactor Operator’s license for the Watts Bar Nuclear Generating Station here in East Tennessee.

You have quite the resume, congratulations!

I am going to put together a financial resume and approach a few small banks in my area to see if there is interest on their end in regards to lending to me and then take it from there.
