Dave G. General Contractor v Inspector
17 June 2015 | 13 replies
Enter new to home buying guy and wife looking to buy a home in San Antonio to live in then rent out.Home listed for $220k it was a flip and was purchased for $60k less than a year ago.Exterior looks wonderful, inside looks great.Original 100yr+ hardwood floors, everything looks very shiny.As we are walking around we start flipping switches, flushing toilets etc.One toilet in particular makes a very gurgly sound that doesn’t seem right and some hall lights don’t work.Our RE agent is all about telling us to hire a General Inspector which will cost about $400 to inspect the property and tell us if anything needs to be fixed.As we look around we start to see more problems.There is a place in the roof where the roof has raised away from the house leaving a sizeable hole to the attic.There is no drip edge along the roof.The breaker box has empty slots in it that let us see into the drywall.Knowing this was a flip we investigated on another Texas State website to look at all the filed permits for the new electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and roofing, and got nothing.No permits filed at that house.Red flag?

JD Martin Does Bigger Pockets encourage Ninja Investors?

I get it that everyone wants to come to the party, especially now with prices having risen fairly dramatically, but sometimes I wonder if the Bigger Pockets room is akin to standing on the floor of a casino where a few people have won dramatic sums in some of the "skills" games (poker, blackjack, etc), and everyone else starts running out into the hallways begging for money to drop in the slot machine so they can get theirs too.Anyway, it seems an interesting philosophical question to ponder, and I'm curious what others may think!

Then, once you think you have it under control, the price of tomatoes doubled this delivery, or the main cook was thrown in jail last night, or a server does not show up and up to 80 percent of the ones that do show up are stealing from you ... unbelievable business.
