However, I am in the process of pulling out a bunch of equity I am going to reinvest and I'm realizing that investing can be several full time jobs worth of work and that my time is better spent working on that goal instead of capturing that handyman pay.I am curious how others find and/or cultivate good relationships with general handymen, while also controlling the expense... and/or any good horror stories are fun too.

I purchased these through an owner finance deal from a family friend so I wont have a large financial institution providing me with an interest rate form, but we very straight forward 30 year amortization tables so calculating the interest on the year will very straight forward as well (he knows he has to capture interest he made as income, he is a seasoned real estate investor).

Should we do something about this appraisal now or just explain all of this down the road to a different appraiser if we were to want to capture that equity? 

What I'm seeing is a lot of newer investors and realtors miss pricing and not capturing the adjustment of the market.

It’s important to capture the individuals who have set their parameters of a max of $300k.

I had a plan to increase rent by capturing rents on "free for all" parking spaces on the lot and also renting out a storage area.

Value-add is always better for those looking to capture equity and then either refi or 1031.Turn-key is good for high income earners (or high net worth) who are just looking to park money.

Composed of five structures in between garden water installations, the main house spreads across 9,000 square feet with a chef-curated kitchen that transitions into an outdoor patio (with pizza oven).

I have a daughter in the medical field (prepping for PA school), 2 sons that are talented chefs, another daughter who would make an awesome caregiver and a few more suited to manage. 

I'd still call myself small (20 deals/year), but I see the opportunity and am running full steam ahead to capture a very large portion of the market.
