I was considering putting in an offer but I hadn't had the time to go walk it/inspect it and there were some questions about the A/C and plumbing that had to be answered to make an educated offer.  

I work with residential, commercial, and government, I never charged anyone for estimates, some take me plus an architect 3 days to complete.For the investors reading this, please note different contractors have different rules, regulations, and methods on how to run their business.

So when a tenant overflows a sink or you have a plumbing leak, you won't have to replace the entire floor.

The BRRRR method sounds great but it would be slow going if every purchase had to be seasoned before the 4th R.I'll keep posting as this progresses - even if it's embarrassing!

Hello BP, sometime ago i read "The definitive guide to using seller financing to buy real estate", and only thought that to prevent due on sale clause, that would mean i can only used this method on debt free property.

We should definately share our process and methods...investing in US remotely from Canada definately brings its own challenges but its deable. 

Granted it's just a rule of thumb but that's a $500/m spread in the two methods.

As for inspecting the plumbing, just depends on how old the house is, how long has it been sitting vacant, through the winter, what kind of water piping does it have, and what type of drain pipe does it have, just to name a few.

Instead, you either have to go with traditional methods such as asking family and friends for help, or you have to think outside the box and consider approaches like peer-to-peer lending and crowd funding.

My family to your, man I appreciate every sacrifice you have made for the freedom we get to enjoy to do real estate and more.There is another to generate cash flow with all of the stresses of flipping houses and landlording, all are great methods, I have found to investing in cash flow note secured by real estate to be profitable and less complicated.
