Just need to trust your boots on the ground team as well to let you know if it's in a good area 

I'm only at my learning/saving phase on this and even I would even look elsewhere as well.

I make an initial down payment draw for each phase of work that my contractor and I have agreed on and then a final draw once the phase is complete.

Another solution: pay someone (not a tenant) to bring the garbage out, bring it back in and keep the grounds clean.

There's definitely a learning curve and a much larger time investment in the beginning as you set up systems and get to know your property and market, but set up good systems and a good boots on the ground team and it can hum along in the background for the most part.  

Full 203k: 35k or more, structural work allowed, more paperwork, requires HUD consultant, Reno money is paid in draws and the repairs are inspected by the bank prior to disbursing monies for next phase of reno.

Hi All,I am currently on phase 2 on my BRRR which is rehab.

If I don't know you, if you send an eMail/text it gets ignored.A phone can be a brutally effective way to cover a lot of ground,Is there something about cold-calling that you don't like?

That was after about 2 years of lurking and minimal interaction...the soaking phase.
