I own several multi-family properties. i recently started the RHO (Road to Home Ownership) program devoted to helping people with steady income but damaged credit and/or insufficient down money to purchase a house.

It has no HOA, was built in the 1970's, is in the $600-700k starter range (I live in OC), and is a place I feel has long-term value. 272 homes here.Since I didn't get list one mailer one back, I have no data, but I do know I had a 4.71% return rate (insufficient address and the like) on list 2, 9.68% rate on list 3 and 1.84% rate on list 4 during the first mailing.

Piecing it out to multiple workers may help you save on rehab costs but could be hard to hold one person responsible if need be.Using a GC is less of a headache being the 1 person you will communicate with as well as the 1 person to be held liable for any incomplete or insufficient work.When using a GC make sure to get multiple (at least 3) bids...and make sure they know they are bidding against each other this will keep them on their toes.

Older properties also tend to have insufficient outlets for today's electronic lifestyles, so a rewire would be your opportunity to increase the number of receptacles (and circuits) in bedrooms and living rooms .... modern code will require that things like refrigerators and microwaves in the kitchen have independent circuits and that receptacles close to water (kitchen counters and bathrooms) are GFI protected.

If there is insufficient room, tell the wholesaler you'd like a 10% finders fee for bringing in a buyer.
