We negotiated a price that worked for both parties, closed within three weeks, and took the property down ourselves.This deal was so clean, we didn’t even need to hire professional cleaners.

Just hire a professional PM.

Ideally, meeting with clients at least once to twice a year if their situation warrants it, especially if they have real estate professional or STR loophole. 

Quote from @Alex Yang: Professional remodeler, first time builder. 

I’m a professional civil engineer with years of experience in construction and entrepreneurship.

I figured DC would be a great area to invest in because it attracts tons of young professionals.

We're leaning toward Cleveland, gravitating to the Cleveland & Shaker Heights B neighborhoods, both for ourselves and for family/professional leaning tenants.

So, my question is do any of y'all write your own contracts, and if so, do you have a professional review them?

They will be using a builder to build the property and a professional property manager to manage it. 

If you're looking to connect with experienced investors, contractors, and other real estate professionals in South Florida, you should definitely come to our Treasure Coast SubTo Meetup in Port St.
