Tatiana, I didn't realize that in some cases you can/should offer $$ for an estimate.

I realize how difficult this would be, but developing house flipping into a seamless process would be extremely advantageous. 

Hi AllI am new to the BP forum as well as flip and was hoping to get some feed back on best practices to get the ball rolling: I have looked at a few properties but realize I might be going about this a little off.

@Chadd Naugle I was hoping for some interesting insight after your questions :) I didn't realize I didn't mention you before.

I didn't realize it was going to be such a process but, I think it will be worth it.  

We thought we could do it with the kids this past trip, but we quickly realized we were fools to even consider it!

I agree with @Aaron Mazzrillo, I recently moved to Orange County in June (from New York) and feel overwhelmed with opportunity here and in surrounding areas, like the Inland Empire, I realize it takes a lot of legwork to familiarize yourself with your market and to find the best deals, but it's sure easier than trying to do the same thing from across the country!

I imagine many will disagree with my statement, but you will never realize your returns as an investor if you use property management.

I believe my main error was I was hung up on this great rate of 2.99% and you guys made me realize that giving that up and going to 4.99% isn't the end of the world because I'm going to take that equity and make much much more than 4.99%.
