We just started our first rehab and we will definitely stage when it's time to sell but I would never pay someone to do it- Someone on another thread suggested downloading the Pinterest app and the Houzz app for rehab ideas but both are also useful for ideas on how to stage.

After a lot of thought and research I decided to pursue a career in real estate investing, so I downloaded and read the Ultimate Beginners Guide.

I was able to seamlessly transition the 2nd deal into immediately cash flowing $250 per unit!

My best advice is to download the booklet "A Brief Guide to Mold, Moisture and Your Home" from the EPA website.

I think they have spreadsheet templates you can download and use from their vault for tracking expensesCongrats and Goodluck.

The benefit that this can create for you (with a couple downloads to excel) is an ongoing cash flow forecasting tool and a comparison of what you thought your cash flow should be to what it actually was.

Also its a good idea to go an download the local hurricane guides and have then ready. 

Go to the site it links to and download the Excel grid they have on the article.

As of this writing, all HAFA agreements must be finalized and signed by December 31, 2012.Please download the Treasury Department’s Supplemental Directive 09-09 for more specific details and samples of forms to be used in processing HAFA transactions.Notice "end buyer" above, (may have double meaning,) Also hearing if the seller wishes not to participate in the HAFA contract they can opt-out in writting on cover letter or hardship letter.In another thread in SS BP their is some compelling reasons why HAFA may not behoove them.

Thanks Timothy, glad it was useful. make sure you send all your contractors to BP to sign up and register, they can easily download it themeselves at that point!
