Learning how to properly evaluate a rehab budget is imperative to your success and there are many books and posts on this topic of how to do it - I have posted many on this topic in the past.Don't forget on your list windows/doors, trims (baseboards and door casings), waterproofing/protecting floor of garage, potential need to frame/or upgrade farming of exterior walls of garage (many garages have stem walls) and the flooring is often sloped to garage door so leveling the floor may be necessary.

I've since also requested the same list from 5 other cities.I am looking forward to meeting some of you and hopefully working and learning from you as well.

I look forward to learning from all of you and contributing to the community!

BP is a great place to learn the business.

If you have the mobility to do so it's a great way to get your feet wet and learn along the way!!!! 

Lessons learned?

I know there is a lot that I'm going to need to learn, and ultimately it will come down to how much the student puts into it.  

If you watch the market every day for a couple weeks, you'll quickly learn what is renting and what is sitting on the market.

Depending on what type of investor you are what your goals are you will learn more from the forum than from their bootcamp- which if it only proffers one investment strategy really is not worth the money.  

Happy to share what I’ve learned if you ever want to chat!
