Greetings BP Fam,I have over 250k in debt (credit cards, mortgage, school loan, car loan) and I’m only bringing in about $400/month. I haven’t had W2 income in over a year and my wife is working part time. My LLC is a...

@Devan Johnson,like others said, you have some mad skills (and a pretty good helper at cleaning up a rag(end of first video)woof).maybe if your medical life live you some extra time, get into the finishes business (no drywall for you), only countertops, cabinets,... helping/for a local builder/developer. this may increase your chances of finding the off-market deal/fixer-upper in your market.also since both of you are in medical field and no kids yet, you can pretty much move everywhere chasing the next construction/remodeling boom.

When I was 16, I went to work at a local flooring company in Bedford  as a helper/installer, and worked there for almost 5 years.

You should do some research on the politics of those mining co's so you can get more comfortable with what the outlook might be for the stability of Price and Helper, and those mines.

Most hired hands are going to burn out fast after they have to chew out a misbehaving sub the third or fourth time.Let me give you an idea from my perspective -We are a design build firm and handle projects including plans, design, permit, material logistics, payroll, book-keeping, ground/assembly management, scheduling, rescheduling, vendor management, quality control/assurance, and every other aspect of construction.We typically have about 5 'ground active' jobs, and 5-7 more in the hopper in some phase of planning, design, or permitting.To accomplish this, we have a meager staff of 2 designers (one of whom is a 20 year architectural veteran), a full time office manager, a full time site manager, a helper who splits time between being a carpenter's assistant and a gopher for materials, and someone who does scheduling and material takeoffs.

I hired some day labor to strip them, and 2 pretty decent helpers who worked on weekends when I was off. 

I bought a few packs of sawzall pruning blades and a cheap electric chainsaw from Harbor Freight (After ripping the cord out of my trusty gas powered first thing that morning.)Me and my helper went to work.

Otherwise, wouldn't you then have a situation where the "Property manager" utilized a "property manager" to fix the toilet, who in turn might also be a "property manager" because he sends a helper to fix the toilet while he's on another job? 

Now, if your plan were to live in half the building (the smaller unit) and use the larger unit as a mortgage helper, you would look at things through a different lens.I am a big proponent of improving the energy efficiency of older buildings, but am not found of carrying the utilities - I like everyone to be responsible for their own resource consumption.  

I like click lock laminate, can put down 900 square feet in a day with a helper.
