I enjoy home improvement / rehab work, so I pulled out my tool belt, and went to work fixing things. 

Hello fellow investors, I'm new to real estate investing, wholesaling in particular and I wanted to find out what are the best ways of keeping track of Key Performance Indicators in your business and how are you re-investing in the business strategy as you scale and get more deals under your belt.

I know that once you get the first three or four notes under your belt the income starts coming in more quickly, I think Dave Van Horn called it the velocity of money. 

What paths do I take when lenders require me to have at least 1 flip or Brrr under my belt before they lend to me?

Fasten your seat belts, mortgage rates are rising.

Profits can be increased by either (a.) raising rents and/or (b.) lowering management costs. 

Typical market vacancy in warm belt states is about 5 to 10%.

@Eric Hrlbock, awesome I would love to be a part of it and I see you're a landscaping contractor with multiple house investments under your belt already thats fantastic!

Meaning, if I am just starting out, should I generally try to buy, renovate, lease, and then sell the property quicker than I would if I already had a numerous amount of units under my belt?

...Either you really had bad luck with a rouge inspector or it's time to invest in the sun belt states....
