@Charles Perkins is absolutely correct about "collecting all receipts, properly tracking all income and expenses and your basis for all assets properly documented and recorded."

Quote from @Christian Solis: When looking for private money how do you guys properly present a fix and flip and how do you structure that deal so they are happy with there return on investment ?  

Using mortgage debt at 6-7% on a refinance to pay off higher rate debt such as a credit card at 15-25% is a savings!

I'm looking for Propstream, does it have different post cards, like deal machine???

If you have a credit card with a high limit or a line of credit on the existing duplex that might give you some wiggle room.

However, I noticed that as a Costco member, they also offer HVAC services, including the same product line (Lennox), along with a 10% Costco Shop Card if you go through them.Has anyone here used Costco for their HVAC needs?

Unfortunately, I’ve run into a major issue: I received a Stop Work Notice on my property in Covington, GA, because I didn’t have the proper permits for the renovations.I want to resolve this as quickly and smoothly as possible without jeopardizing the project.Can anyone offer advice or share their experience with:1.How to address the Stop Work Notice with the local authorities?

.* Additional Charges: Jenny requested that I deposit on her checking account an additional $20-25k for her to purchase furniture, which I refused because I thought it was very strange, opting to give my card # instead.* Work Quality: Jenny never showed up to the house, she sent 2 people instead, she never mentioned she would not show up herself, she never asked for approval to send two others instead, they did not complete the job, and there were multiple unauthorized charges on my card.* Receipts and Expenses: Once I brought to Jenny's attention that we were 20k above budget, she refused for days to give me the receipts, saying that I needed to give her my credit card statement first.

If the insurance isn't done properly, it's on the edge of impossible to cash the check because it's made out to the lender, my company, and the seller(s). 

I think the proper way is to "de-wire" the electric boxes, hang the drywall, pull the wires through the holes, reattach wires into the electric boxes and then push the rewired boxes into the hole from the outside in.
