I think it can be profitable for seasoned real estate investors who have both the time and expertise to make sure their rehab project stays on budget, but I definitely wouldn’t recommend biting off more you can chew and doing BRRRR for your first deal.

They take your electricity bill for the year and do a straight line calculation which is almost always wrong because your electrical company charges vary by the hour, and solar production vary by the hour / season etc.

They may not take on new clients in the first quarter of busy season.  

Conventional financing would be difficult as they typically require 12 months seasoning to use the newly appraised value.

Otherwise contract a service for the season that will automatically take care of for every snowfall.4) YES you need to heat them!

As we sell through these items should we create a bank account with the llc to "season" the capital for when we are ready to reach out to a lender when we are ready to make our first investment?  

Cons - you have to wait a few months depending on the seasoning period to do the cash out refi.

We do this for the busy season, then allow to trail off late in the year.

and so many people sit on the sideline thinking there will be a real estate crash.Even if it crashes you still have a lot/a building/a home.I guess BTC is better than beanie babies or little football helmets....at least you probably won't have to take up garage space if it goes to zero.
