I DIYed moat since I had more time than money as I was still AD.Even after an inspection things will pop up and I'd rather have the cash in the bank for repairs than just sitting as equity in the house.

This may be an overly ambitious strategy considering that I am inexperienced in both DIY and sales contracts, but in theory it seems like a very efficient option.

I am on the final chapter of reading The BRRRR Rental Property Investment Strategy Made Simple book. 

2) Stessa is software for DIY landlords.

We are doing much better than covering costs, etc. but this was a 1031 exchange and I had one simple goal (among others) to beat our previous numbers in the NoVA/DC area.

I'm sure if you put the time and money in to Bosch's course it could work.The simple reality though (as @Scott Morris noted) is that there are many high quality land courses out there that are either free or inexpensive.Almost every one of the several multi-seven-figure land flippers I know has taken at least one course.

So now that it is empty, I have been doing as much work as I can myself, such as painting all the walls, replacing damaged bricks, drywall repairs, AC duct repairs, plumbing repairs, and simple electrical stuff to save money, but do not feel like I have the woodworking skills needed to install cabinets or siding and have it come out looking professional and clean.

It will be a simple structure and our investors are friends.

So, even if it wasn't this simple to establish the amount there would be an amount owed.

It is simple enough and cheap enough to run surface molding up to the fan box, with an extension on an outlet box to connect to a circuit.
