I have cheap guys who do it 1/2 to 1/3 what you pay if call someone off Yelp.

but keep in mind CA has higher taxes and reg fees and I’m not doing more than 1-2 flips (short timeframe flips)  a year and many years do 0 flipsDo most flippers put flips into LLC Or in personal name (sole proprietor)  in CA (where you must pay $800 yearly plus accounting and other fees $300to $600+ yearly to maintain LLC) Pros for personal name-save on taxes accounting.

Quote from @Chris Pontello: Hi Chris,Correct me if I'm wrong as I'm still learning creative financing solutions, but paying them some money would be if I could take over the loan.

buy house  find renter rent house maintain house pray they pay rent and dont destroy it.

Quote from @Edgar Duarte: hi allI would love to get some perspective from your expertise, we have a property that we would have to sell in 2025 to avoid paying taxes on the capital gains, we believe we rcan sell it for $700K and get an equity of almost $500K after paying the mortgage balance, if we invest all of it option in index funds at 7% rate (standard com growth calculator), or in more rental properties as we are all here for, I can get the equity of around $900K.option B would be keep paying the house at 2.3% int rate while we have it in AirBnB and maybe sell it in 10 years for $900K, knowing that we would be paying taxes but it is not that bad still. or we can 1031 at that point?

I pay for prop stream and love the amount of detail you can add into a search. 

You also need to consider that at a lower percentage of money down you will be paying a Mortgage Insurance Premium or MIP. 

You then will pay some long term capital gains, but you also have to take depreciation recapture. 

Furthermore if they are always paying they probably will stiff you in the end if they know they aren't going to get the deposit back. 

As a result, if that carrier goes under and is unable to pay claims, the state is not required to backstop the policy.
