Hopefully, you've approved a bid they submitted, so the cost is fixed - unless they can document the need for acceptable change orders.If they are charging hourly, then, yes, they may be able to charge you more the longer it takes.Keep in mind, your PMC is unlikely to have an exterminator and other licensed contractors on staff.

Are you licensed in Texas or are these off market properties ?

Having a real estate license is NOT required to be a successful real estate investor.IMO, it can help though!

Hello Clareen,I am an investor and also recently got my license and am based out of Charlottesville.

Are you in the process of taking the licensing class now?

Im a newly licensed real estate agent in San Diego looking to connect with local agents, investors and wholesaler in the area.

I always got the impression that he had a bad criminal record or never got his high school diploma/ GED equivalent or some other issue was preventing him from getting a license, because he was basically just brokering without a license but calling it consulting (I don't know any of that to be true for the record, that was just the impression that I got from his comments and might explain why he used a fake name?). 

I'm a licensed commercial and residential agent and looking to acquire 28 units though owner financing. someone knocked it out of the park when they said your return is theoretically higher if you use financing vs cash.

Thanks for any help’ Yes we're licensed there and FHA guides in one state apply to all states unless a state has a specific law that supercedes the FHA lending guideline.FHA is always 3.5% down minimum (in some cases less because you're using a DPA or down payment assistance program or 2nd lender to put down over all a lower down payment than 3.5%, Aka for instance 3.5% DPA + 96.5% FHA = 100% financing but just dont kid yourself this is fully 100% leverage and to be used with caution and carefully).In the case of 2-4 unit FHA is still 3.5% down payment @Matthew Kwan @Carlos ValenciaThere are rules regarding FHA such as:- primary residence - you must occupy one of the 2-4 unit property as your primary over 50% of the year and the underwriter needs to believe you will remain and have the ability to live in there, any deviation from this and you'll get a whole laundry list of conditions asking you to prove why you should be believed to be living or will live there (if this arises dont be surprised, it just means the UW doesnt believe you).- SS rule - self sufficiency rule - gross rents of all potential units 2-4  X gross rents at 75% needs to meet 1:1 or 100% of the monthly PITIA payment or greater.
