Let me know.Reggie Truss

Great ROI in those niches.I stood up my first AirBnb and had 3 reservations totaling 37 days occupancy which equates to a dollar amount of $1800+.

BTW, I ordered all my modular homes with floor trusses w/ the heat ducts already installed in them, so if you looked in the basement (if not finished), it would look a little different.

The list for new builds can be a lot trickier (poor construction/ construction defects, new materials being used that haven't stood the test of time yet, foundation issues from expansive soils or bad concrete being used (harder to know because the damage isn't visible yet), sewer line might be already jacked up or done wrong, windows or roof may not have been flashed properly but water damage isn't visible yet (I've seen new builds where you could literally see daylight coming in through gaps around the windows), grading or drainage issues, truss rise, nail pops, water intrusion, cheap appliances only made to last a few years or poorly installed, dirty ducts from registers not being covered during construction, wood shrinkage cracking the sheetrock, doorframes off/sticking doors and windows, apparently mold and meth may be present already... both old and new require due diligence and an experienced inspector. 

I stood by my numbers and was more confident in the negotiation because I could ask real time questions and respond to counter offers in real time.

This is not bad or good, just how they operate and as an experienced investor working with multiple PMs across several states and also self managing for years they stood out to me as unwilling to listen and always ready to explain.

The experience didn't go as planned, but one key thing that stood out in your post is that you realized that you do bring something to table.Focus on your energy on what you do bring to the table and use that as your competitive advantage to grow.

Appraisals and valuations seem to be what get the most noise, but they've always stood by their guaranteed variance in the appraisals.  

On a 2 story if the electricity comes up from the basement, you'll have a pocket at floor level and one at ceiling level on the first floor, and if there's no attic access you'll have one on the floor and at ceiling level, and the ceiling depends on which way the trusses or rafters run.

Does anyone have a contact that can verify the load capabilities and support requirements of engineered trusses that are in a home I'm flipping in Springfield, TN.
