Time, money, materials, contractors.

Hey @Kevin Sierra, Given we are accountants, we cannot promote our services on BP as its against the rules.To help in your search:be sure to find an accountant who is willing to grow with you, and is not too high priced fee-wise.

I saw their Facebook post promoting their quick collaborative mortgage service and decided to try it for a property renovation project.After filling out a form and providing my ID and bank statement, they promised a $41600 mortgage within one day, but required a 3% service fee.

Adam Hey Adam, In Wholesaling, you are acting as a principal (buyer) in the transaction so you would just need a regular purchase & sale agreement with "and/or assigns" language and a marketing clause for you to be able to promote the property while you are under contract.

Electrical connections get loose and wonky, roofing material flies off, gutters get tore up, hvac and water lines get messed up. 

Choosing the most expensive insulation because it's the most energy efficient, should allow you to reduce and/or eliminate costs in other areas.4 - Energy efficiency isn't made up of added costs.5 - Energy efficiency is the product of reducing energy needs, not supplying added energy.6 - Cost effectiveness is a product of maximum use of materials, as in little or no waste.All of the above should be obvious, in parts. 

If actual costs are higher then projected costs ( rise in material or labor cost), the GC may come back and ask for more money. 

Now, if you’re speaking about some gurus who promote subject to without safeguards to be used by people with no experience or financial ability to withstand a foreclosure action then I agree that it can be an irresponsible act.  

@Jonathan Roper Can we just import those workers for time and materials for a few weeks?

They will often want a new building constructed and building today with labor and materials is very expensive versus retrofitting existing building.When I buy value add vacant buildings the goal is to double the return on investment within a 3 year period.So if I can use the existing building and retrofit to same concept ( example previous burger inc. but now Whataburger wants to come in ) then not as much tenant improvements to convert.So if rent 20 a foot for 5,000 ft that is 100k NOI NNN a year. 7 cap value is about a 1,400,000 stabilized valueSo if I buy it for 400k and have 300k in it more 700k to get new tenant in the value is then around 1,400,000 based on NNN 20 a foot and a 7 cap rate exit value.If you want a premium price then you would need to sell to an end user tenant ( regional or national in nature) that wants to buy the building and put their concept in there.
