A lot of people may consider these options borderline reckless, but I've used the following sources at different points in time:Credit Cards - You can cash advance or pay suppliers directly.Personal Loans - I've used the following: Prosper, Lending Club, SoFi, Best Egg, Discover Personal Loans, USAA Personal Loans (these are by far the simplest, if you're a member).

This option might be preferable if you prefer a more hands-off approach to the renovation process.Contractor Relationships and Expertise --> Some contractors often have established relationships with suppliers, which can lead to volume discounts or preferential treatment. 

I have 20 years of hands on and administrative construction experience including market analysis, cost estimating, risk analysis, budgeting, purchasing, and relationship building with contractors and suppliers.   

Just bought my first investment property and looking for advice on best suppliers for rehab materials.

Anybody have any direct experience, or inputs into quality suppliers?

I pay $450 a window but I have a deal with my supplier, I give them a lot of work, etc.

Use lines of credit for materials from suppliers, they have cheap money.

Tyson just did what Walmart has been doing and getting all suppliers (vendor world) to have an office here.

If your bathrooms are bigger and will see it - Should definitely think about going with commercial grade/hospital grade LVP stuff they'd put in a grocery store or on the floor of a hospital wing if you've been to any to do marketing you should be familiar with what I'm talking about.One of my flooring suppliers pointed out to me that the High end commercial grade stuff does not have the "texture" that the residential pieces do - it maybe can detract from the look but there is a practical reason for it - with heavy foot traffic (wheel chairs & walkers) they will constantly catch the edges of the textured stuff and it will wear much quicker and unevenly - also will make it difficult to maintain as dirt/stuff can get ground into the crevices of the texture.mmmIf you want to see what wheel chair & walker traffic can do to a floor in short order I'd be glad to show you our place...ha - we have old school VCT floors in our hallways and everytime after we get it waxed/maintained it looks good for about 3 days then bam - gets a lot of marks on it again and begins to look dull quickly.

Also, may be contacting you for our PEMB needs as my last supplier messed up a few things on my last order.
