Hi Marie, I would love if you could send that over to me as well if you don't mind!! 

Paint is not rocket science, and he asked if I had any work that needed doing, so I let him do the paint job instead of my painter (accepting in my mind that if he didn't do a great job this was going to be charity).

One thing to keep in mind is typically a lender will not be able to reimburse you for labor you complete yourself on a flip. 

You’re in the right place to meet like-minded investors and gain local insights.

Keep in mind that with a mortgage you are also building equity, so that's a plus.

Purchase price: $131,000 Cash invested: $41,000 Off market deal - Going in this project with an Opportunistic BRRR mind.

. :)  I am hoping to network with all relevant professionals in the field...especially like minded investors in my local area.

In my mind a condo will provide me:-CAPEX is controlled by HOA (I only have to pay, not dedicate time)-Low down payment-Cheap financing paymentI plan to live there for 3-5 years and after could expect a NIAF around ($200). 

Any recommendations of contractors familiar with this business model will also be appreciated.Also would love to hear about any other gotchas and things to keep in mind about this business model.

As I said, math and numbers aren't my strength, but I'm a dedicated student when I put my mind to something, and I know how to read and use a calculator :)Thanks for reading!
