I am based out of the Santa Rosa Century 21 Office but I cover all of Sonoma County and beyond.My very first purchase was a Duplex where I lived in one unit and rented out the other for rental income.

Based on your first fix/flip, it sounds as if you don't have any issues doing moderate rehab.

Obviously tough to give advice based on minimal info and no info on your personal situation.

We have made money buying properety based on cash flow (lower priced) rented out for a period, then selling to an owner occupant. 

This gives you flexibility and a clearer understanding of how you’ll proceed based on market changes.

Or a seller finance calculator showing the monthly payment based on negotiated price, interest rate, down payment, etc.

@Ilir Livadhi I think you are referring to property wholessalers telling you how much the rehab will be - and as you see, their numbers are often not based on reality.

I would still set aside money for renovations that are need based if you do that and use the rest to invest.

As I start to look at what sub-contractors I want to use I wanted to see if anyone has a good base template for sub contractors to sign?

I haven’t gotten a tour yet, but based on driving by and photos of the inside, it looks ready to rent right away.
