If you have access to a thermal camera you may be able to see from the inside where cold spots are and figure out a way to combat them.Windows are a big area of heat loss too, if they are old that might be the biggest problem.

No hard feelings there, as I'm sure I'm not the biggest fish in his pond.I'd like to find someone Mpls area that are specific to representing buyers, looking to find a deal for a flip.

Listening to Clayton Morris' podcasts after finding his company Morris Invest on Facebook and having viewed a lot of his videos on YouTube is what motivated me join and look into real estate investing further.That being said, the biggest obstacle I face is not having the cash on hand to do my first deal, and not having any private money connections as of yet.Also, from what I've read of Morris Invest here on BP, there seems to be not enough people with experience dealing with this company, or when I do read of people that have had experiences with Morris Invest, the reviews are mixed at best.Being brand new to all of this however, it seems going the turnkey route seems less complicated in the beginning than trying to reinvent the wheel and do everything myself, but that's just my opinion.Learning to analyze deals and the underlying math involved and understanding the terminology is going to take practice, but is the foundation to a successful REI career.

The ultimatel goal is build funds through fix n flips (open to wholesaling too) to acquire mid level multis (10-50 unit properties)Beyond the normal "how do i _____" which likely has been answered multiple times over here on BP the biggest question I have is how do I get my wife more involved, engaged, and an integral part of this new endeavor?

The biggest expense to the association are water and sewer dues.
