I am pretty handy and have done plenty of restoration work myself and not afraid to put in some elbow grease. looking into real estate to get the wealth ball rolling but feel a little uneasy given the current state of the economy. what would you do in my shoes?! 

It feels like there’s always a surprise—whether it’s skyrocketing material prices or finding something unexpected during the demo—that eats into the budget and profits.I know there’s always more to learn, so I’m curious—how do you approach rehab budgeting?

If you ever want to discuss strategies, share experiences, or need additional resources, feel free to reach out.

Although I’ve been investing in real estate, both directly and indirectly for 45+ years, I still get a “queasy” feeling when an investment does not perform as expected.My “aha” moment occurs when we reach the point when, despite the investment problems, we’re able to still show a good/substantial profit at the end of our holding period.  

Feel free to pm me or email. 

Feel free to message me if you have additional questions.  

Don't solely rely on third-party management companies; instead, focus on building a solid asset management plan and, if needed, bring in experts or partners who excel in this field.

I've offered easy HDMI hookups for BYOC (bring your own console), but not actually included mine as I've heard stuff gets more mistreated, stolen, etc.I can't quite imagine offering newer games for this purpose. 

Turn this around into a positive feel for the tenants. 

As newcomers to real estate rental investing, their guidance has made us feel confident and excited about this new venture.
