I'm currently looking at All Star Management, Howard Hanna, and Avalon Escrow. 

- From there I would just say make sure the experience is 5 stars from check in to check out.

@Benjamin Curtis I'm not quite the rock star @Paul Sandhu is referring to, but I managed four VRs (three in GB/PF) from my iPhone while working 70-80 hours/week on television sets in Los Angeles.  

If probate lawyers are a potential source for someone like myself to get things going and stabilizing lead sources why would you suggest not pursuing these leads until the stars align and I have years/deals of experience?

The ultimate big money beneficiary would be upper level employees and members of the Board of Directors of ROC, as the four and five star communities were forced to sell through a process normally controlled by ROC in which ROC and their upper level people would reap huge bonanzas.A few of us in the industry are aware of this and are working to quash their effort, but there are many others in the industry still asleep or being bought off to ignore or even promote this effort.

I know ultimately I have to trek this journey on my own no matter how informed I become.

I'd recommend Alpha Electric and 5 Star Plumbing as fairly priced, extremely responsive subs.

While I can subscribe to some blogs, I'm wondering if there's been any internal discussion about a tool on the BP site to easily "star" articles for reading later. 

There are requiremements, timetables, payment structures and other things to be done( I'm don't do 203k work so I'm not too familiar with the process) but with a little work any licensed, insured GC that can finance the job till the payments roll in can do the work.Of course if you find someone that does 203 work that might be easiest...but keep in mind if you have a personal contact with a contractor that is willing to learn the process that could be another route.I know about this because there is a website that touts 203k certified contractors and they charge you to tell you what you could learn for free from Govt websites....that and a gold star insignia for your website or biz cards if I remember correctly

I used Bob Doody of Silver Star Electric, he was good and affordable. 432.413.7514.
