@Chris WillsonWelcome.At our Movers and Shakers meeting last Friday 8/8, one investor complained that when he went to Craig's List and communicated with three different contractors, None showed up or gave him estimates.However there were four at our meeting and two gave him estimates then and arranged to meet him at the property the next day.You're right, Contractors are critical Especially local in Boston, Massachusetts!

She was nearly done when the sheriff showed up and the movers started helping her.

When we were younger, we became serial movers and lived in one house, fixed it up and rented it, and then moved into the next house. 

And you are also getting into the mover's world - need good transport.Sounds like you could start your business organically, fill the requests of your friends and see where that takes you and requires of you and your furniture.I don't know about pricing structure, inquire with the other stagers out there.

AND I paid for movers for him because nothing was getting done.

Unfortunately for my Under Market Tenants in WA State I will have to move Rents Closer to Market early in 2023 or Forever be locked into Below Market Rates.   

I just sent an email to a local home mover to get a general price, but I'm sure he'll tell me it all depends...

Hi @Jose Diaz, I don't know what part of the state you live in, but I just closed a sale in Aberdeen, WA it was a single-family residence in livable condition for $80k.
