Because I invest in income producing property, my net rental yield is around 8%, with yearly increases, leveraged with 4-5% loans, creating a net cash flow and debt reduction yield of about 10%. 

I echo what others are saying on here that hiring someone from fiverr or upwork tends to not produce great results long term.

Flipping is a side job and won’t produce steady mailbox money for life while you vacation and nap.

We also get calls from good, professional agents that are almost apologetic about their offer where a newbie listed to a podcast produced by some joker that doesn't really know what they are doing themselves.

I've helped manage 100s of estimates for residential contractors, producing nearly 100 myself.Disclaimers: I'm not currently a contractor, nor appraiser, nor licensed.

Another thing I'd highly recommend is talking to property managers on BP to get some feedback-- it's probably very rewarding and can produce income without many starting costs, but it does come with headaches.By thinking about your next steps, you're already on the right track.

I do not have large reserve of capital although do produce enough through my current properties to Fund 200k of repairs over next 2 yrs. 

So it is safe to say, the business has to pay for 100% of it's operations, from about 7% of it's intake potential client's. 93% are JUST an expense with NO revenue produced. 

Many times experience of the buyer, credit history and reserves in addition to what income the property can produce will factor in how the lender will structure the loan. 

It can move like molasses too, so your asset may take time to sell if you choose to exit.All this said, and I don't have a single income producing residential property at the moment....something I'm working to rectify.
