Please make sure that you give that boiler a fair shake before these Bigger Pockets naysayers talk you into buying five Central HVAC units.

They are trying to shake you down for funds.

Once we finish adding washer/dryers, semi-enclosing the patios, and re-tenanting the property, the cap rate should be over a 9% and the average rent should shake out in the $895+ range with another $30 in RUBs for water/sewer (just signed the first two new leases yesterday, each for $1,030 all in!). 

Here's what I'm thinking so far: 10-15 minutes: meet and greet (networking, business card exchange, shaking hands, etc.) 20-30 minutes: Have a professional come in to speak about their service (home inspectors, surveyors, county officials--such as building code inspectors, etc., etc.)    20-30 minutes: training session on a particular topic (flipping/rehabbing, multi-family, how to "pull comps" to arrive at a price for a subject property, how to runs ads on facebook, how to use the GIS, etc.)10-15 minutes: floor time for any wholesalers or investors with properties for sale, funding needs, potential partners sought, etc., etc. 5 minutes: wrap upThoughts?

Hand shake kind of deal.

Get out there shake some hands and start buying properties.  

All through networking, shaking hands, meeting investors at meetups. 

The house was built in 1910 and had beautiful cedar shake underneath the siding.

But since I was, and am still so new to this I’m not entirely sure how to gauge whether I got a good shake.

I just had a similar job (cedar shake, 2 asphalt, and redeck) done on a 21 square job for a similar price.
