What size systems and brand/models? 

Brand Turner, David Greene, J Scott, they all say don't pay for that stuff if they give it to you free from the comfort of your own laptop. 

Some brands are better than others for having the nose pieces for the front of the stairs.

On the other hand, our house has a brand new roof, brand new hot water heater and recently renovated kitchen with newer appliances.

This is just an example, certainly conduct your own diligence but don't feel obligated to use the name brands (ie andersen, pella)..especially their entry level windows or those you will buy at a Home Depot or Lowes.

Quote from @Xavier Prieto: Nate, it's essential to recognize that the way you brand yourself online is just as critical as the message you're sending.

I am not anti-Texas, but a brand-new investor shouldn't be investing into a widespread down market unless they know which towns will rebound first.

I know the forum has a bunch of info (appreciate it) but wanted to ask a few Qs as it relates to our needs:1) PS vs Indio - We visited both places over the weekend and almost considered a brand new home on the lake at Terra Lago in Indio but had a last minute pause. 

For example, we work with new construction duplexes in Indy that not only have lower insurance costs but are also brand-new properties, which means fewer surprises when it comes to inspections and repairs.If you're ever interested in diversifying or looking at markets that might offer you better returns and fewer insurance headaches, feel free to reach out!

If you are searching for a HML that can give you 100% financing or 90%/100% Rehab financing when you are brand spanking new, there is a high likelihood that it is a scam or a potential bait and switch.
