My current job is $18.5/hr and pretty time intensive as my hours vary day to day so I could be working during the day or night and I have to intentionally find time to stay as rested as I can and also to do the things I want to do since I don’t have a set work schedule.

Your experience may vary.

To set the scene: A cost seg study breaks your property into two important categories:1250 "real" property aka the building, foundation and other long life assets.

I apologize for anyone who falls into this category but I need to discuss this because it's a pet peeve that bothers me so much!

I was double that and so was Holt homes.. some of the one off builders were still at 2% or 2.5%  and it varied with how hot the market was the commish was moving all over the place.. the transaction I am talking about the broker had their client low ball us and ask for about 200k in upgrades PLUS double our normal commish rate..

Hard Money lenders will vary with their general "friendliness" towards first time investors/flippers but there is availability for even a big portion of the flip financed (like 85% of costs) from some HMLs - believe it or not, you can get that much of your first flip financed!

While there are sickos out there that re offend there are those who were " he was 18 she was 17" category.

So, if it's being constructed and not in service it probably would be in different category.

You’ve come to the right place to connect with some vary smart investors.

If so, what would be the best category and cities to start in for real estate?
