In NYC, there seems to be some up and coming design/build firms that have some impressive websites that are tackling that market successfully.

Hi Raquel.Welcome to BP.My focus is Northern Virginia, but many investors I work with tackle the tri-state area (VA, MD & DC).Have you looked into CAZA Meetup (located in Reston, VA) or Baltimore REIA?

As I said, I was interested in one of his properties for purchase as a fixer up and buy and hold but since he is motivated to sell off most of his portfolio, I thought this would be a great way to be introduced into wholesaling.I don't have access to the MLS in order to get good comps, I don't have a buyer's list and I don't think I would be accurate at estimating the price of repairs so I don't think I want to tackle this on my own since there are so many properties involved.As for your question as to the dollar amount, I don't know the exact dollar amount that he needs to purchase the commercial property he is interested in.

The show will feature first time house flippers as they tackle all the challenges that come with flipping your first house.If you're about to or are considering flipping your first house, we'd like to follow you in your venture to turn a disaster home into a money maker.

For others with less experience, I would highly recommend getting a couple builds under your belt (with someone who's done it before) before tackling one on your own...From my own experience (no construction experience before I got into this business), even after 50+ big rehabs, I wouldn't have been comfortable building my own home.

If you know the location is a slam dunk and it's cheap but you are unsure of how to tackle the highest and best use, can you either buy and flip to a commercial investor, or just sit on it until someone else comes calling?

This year I am completely committed to completing at least 10 deals.What I'm looking to improve upon is having a better system in place in order to tackle so many homes in one year.

I plan to tackle that project this weekend, and would love any pointers ; )

Finding someone who can tackle both ends of it is a challenge.

The fiberglass is a bit stained and off-color in some areas; haven't yet tackled the detailing of this.
