Nearly everyone has a social media profile https://www.statista.com/statistics/273476/percent...and they spend an average of 5 hours a day on their devices. https://techcrunch.com/2017/03/03/u-s-consumers-no...Now, someone can either look at this data and say, "nah, that will die soon." or "social media is terrible, it's ripping apart society", "social media will have no effect on business" or "con artists and marketing teams have figured out how easy it is to use social media against you" and leave it at that.

You may to rip up the flooring and redo the support from the outside joist.

I'd keep it most likely, but that's kinda what I do :) All hinges on having a good PM that gives a rip who they place in your house.

One of the things that holds a new investor back is a fear of being ripped off without knowing it.

I would think the judge is just making sure the tenant did not get taken by some slick talking wholesaler who ripped their equity..I know @Keith Jourdan  personally and I know he would never do this.. but i can see judges with all this wholesaling stuff going on.. when they get a chance and something does not smell right they may want to check it out some-more..  

you just don't get that same connection when your trying to rip equity out of houses's .. or distressed owners are usually one and done

.- Ripped up carpets and re-finished the hardwood- Fresh coat of paint- Laminate flooring in the bathroom- Stick on splash for the kitchen sink area- Few other minor repairs- Brand new stainless steel oven (all other appliances stayed the same)After all of this was finished up for about $5,000-$6,000 I was able to rent the unit out for just above market average in my area.

I was eating pb@j sandwiches everyday because in my mind I couldn’t dare do laminate I had to have granite, god for bid a tile was laid slightly crooked, I’d rip it all up.

I had been financing him for years. ( he is now one of the top Guru's in the country).but he had been turned on to the market and liked it.. and since I knew the borrower so well I did the deals for himnow he had a tough time on the rehab.. what happened to him is what I have been warning folks about on other threads this latest pod cast and book about remote rehab is so dangerous to the begineer.. this guy was anything but.. however my position was so low in the deals I made my money he lost 20 to 50k a house.. contractors ripping him off  thefts time it was a nightmare for him to try to do it from CA> but don't feel bad for him he makes 1 million a month or better right now being a Guru  LOL..

I am afraid to give my only money saved and get ripped off, I am a contractor and have been doing flip homes for buyers for the last 5 years ,and I want to do my own flips ,but only have this ($3000) I'm thinking of giving them to do the deal ,and ($1000) set aside for earnest money.
