They do have some finish work to do onsite where all the marriage lines meet, they have to patch in the siding, repair whatever drywall cracked, and install the wood flooring (carpet is put in at the factory too).Cons The only con we can think of is the design factor.

That sounds like a marriage , most marriages end in divorce because of finances .The gross profit is the hardest to manipulate , You buy the house for $ 100 K , you sell for $ 200 K the gross profit is $ 100 K .........SimpleThe net profit is after all expenses , materials , contractors, insurance , I could keep naming expenses that could eat up the net profit with ease .As Jay Scott mentioned , returning materials would be easy .Contractor buddys giving 2 bills , Paying the rehabber a salary , and bonus for working , etc , etc .I see doing a great job on the property , and offering the agents a bonus to get the property sold a better solution , the agents see a real number , not a questionable possibility .

Focus on markets which are appreciating and there are a few, easiest way to make money.Grow capital first, its a catch 22, you need capital to create income streams.Mix it with flips and you have a marriage in heaven.This is how I have created wealth and goodbye day job, 10 years ago now.

As a landlord, good paperwork is your best defense4) Call up the acct guys (Buildium AppFolio, Cozy, etc) and show them what you want to do and have them demo it to you to your satisfaction5) Be aware this is a marriage for life, once you put your info in, getting it out to another system is d*** near impossible.  

My husband is active duty so we move ALOT (we are at our 5th location in less than 7 years of marriage so I meant ALOT).
