For me I'm blazing both guns at a risk level comfortable for me.

My mentor always told me, if you’re an investor new to the game and you’re coming in guns blazing, firing away at grabbing a deal or focusing on how much money you’re gonna make instead of front loading some time (before you even shoot the trigger on offering on a property) to source and get a contractor, meet up for a showing/get a bid, and plan your contract and deal analysis accordingly, you may run the risk of the rehab blowing up your deal and the acquisition being all for not in the end.

@Shanna Mosby In the 23222 area there are deals to be had, you really have to be on the ground there and find the deals where others have blazed the path and just ride their coat-talis, don't try to go in there and start on a new block.

The fire dept. cut through my friend's unit to put out the blaze.

Only two units were effected during the blaze.

Have you blazed that path yet?

Wake up everyday blazing guns.Frank

Especially if you have a convoluted LLC arrangement there and here, the management of the LLC(s) may complicate your life and offer more avenues for an attorney to blaze right through to you personally anyway.

Have you tried to establish some form of communication with the home owner or did you go in with both guns blazing with your offer?

I started like that thinking why blaze my own trail when I can user a proven system or follow a person that has been successful.
