@Ryan Evans I am headed back to Cleveland on Sept 27 to check on my projects..We have a few light rehab projects there at the moment.

My partner and I just finished our first rehab project and I've been getting generalized invoices.

If this is in OH, there are many companies who will insure a lower limit without you taking on massive risk.

We had a girl who was head over the heels about the place at our open house, but her realtor has advised her not to put it under contract because he is confident it will get a low appraisal due to the appraiser only using in project comps (he also mentioned that it is a VA loan, and they are very strict about staying in the project).I also believe that the realtors are not even showing this to their clients because of the above reason (though we have had about 4 showings).  

Typically, we also like to put new financing so we can get a couple years of I/O but we did a FNMA loan assumption early this year that has been crushing our projections.

Find out well in advance if your project is even a candidate for refi.

This may be a complete demo project but there is a lot of equity.

Hi all, we are looking into doing BRRRR in Lehigh Valley area (mostly likely Easton), and one piece of advice we got is that we should line up a local bank before going into projects.

The project management side of things even if slightly more expensive still makes sense because it should save me time and travel expenses.

I've not pulled the trigger as yet myself, as I have no idea if rehab project management is included.
