And it sounded like it applied to flips as well....so maybe look into that requirement in TX, but I would be surprised if they required a license in TX.

People apply for 10 credit cards in a month when they are on a downward spiral financially, and FICO reflects this (this will nuke your FICO score).

Sounds like you mostly need a plumber and/or an HVAC contractor (depending on the township, the trade that signs for an HVAC could be a separate HVAC contractor, a plumber, an electrician, or even a general contractor) to apply for permits.

What lessons have you learned about investing in real estate that you can apply to your own residence?

Know the law, document everything, and make sure everyone on the team knows how the law applies to their functions and acts accordingly.

I would focus on a couple of markets and apply the education to those markets. 

If you are a realtor same thing applies. 

We look at per sq. ft. prices for SFR and per unit prices on MF...here, you can't apply the sq. ft. method to MF because we have a huge amount of older and huge MF properties...it corrupts the data.

scam...never  pay anything to anyone when applying for a loan
