RTR and my lender have been great through this whole process.

Started the process on 1 house in Cape Coral Nov. of 2021. 

Quote from @Jason Hathaway: I'm in the process of purchasing another home adding to my portfolio.

The city made me conform to their exact permit application process which was burdensome and frustrating.

Building a trusted team is key, so starting that process as you actively search for your market will put you in a strong position moving forward.

@Chris HainsI use the House Flipping Spreadsheet (https://www.houseflippingspreadsheet.com/) to do the planning, analysis and estimating prior to purchase. 

I'm considering adding this product for my short-term rental (STR) as well, but I plan to go directly to Waivo since I've already had a consultation with them.

Dennis' dad and I actually tripped over something similar back in Chandler.. we learned to tap into city planning websites and even call the permit offices directly to get a real sense of their backlogs.

Ultimately it is either a long process to get a check/fix, or they deny the claim.    

@Arthur Tolentino - I'm in the process of finalizing a BRRRR on a quad in the Philly suburbs.
