I even try to unsell them on the business by sharing my financial losses, litigation,  market shifts, permit purgatory, shady contractors,  clouded title issues,  paranormal activity, squatters, mold, etc.

Hey Chandler, I'm delighted by your presence.. how do you feel about building a team of trusted contractors?

I haven’t done my first deal yet, but through hiring a local contractor to build my personal residence I had this idea that I don’t hear people talking about.

I believe many believe they can assemble a team of realtor, contractor, property manager and lender and become profitable.

I should also mention we shut off the breaker (to the garage) after confirmation from two electricians and our contractor that we had a serious fire risk.   

Hey There @Dominic Campelo - I am also a fellow General Contractor here in Chicago!  

Real estate agents, property managers, and contractors who specialize in your target market can save you time and money in the long run.

If you can, bring a contractor or inspector when you check it out to get a clearer idea of what you’d be dealing with.It sounds like you’re doing your homework, which is key!

Contractors can give you ballpark quotes on the spot, which will tighten up your budget.

One of the biggest factors in successful flips is building a strong team: contractors, agents, lenders, and property managers.
