I am having to replace the Truss and roof over the garage (garage is attached to the house).

As a sellers agent, you do have significant work to do by putting up the property and doing open houses and talking with buyers agents giving them information.

Is it too much to think that he would proactively tell me when the stairs are literally crumbling and the gutter is falling off the side of the house?!

So I like to lean into a combination of house hacking and value add.

What kind of insurance do rehabbers get? Builders risk insurance with general liability? Which company would you recommend? I'm currently looking for one for a single family one story home without HOA. 

I want to post to FB Marketplace too but it's annoying how you can't hide housing listing posts from friends on there as I don't want everyone knowing what I am doing.

I am planning to buy a house in Bronx, close to the city, I found a single family house 1 and 1/2 bathroom, 3 bedroom, finished basement, garage, and yard,The house looks in really good condition, I already made an offer for 570.000, in melrose Bronx, I know this is not a safe neighborhood, but I do believe the house will appreciate and also I think I could easily rent it since it’s close to the subway,What do you guys think, will a house in melrose Bronx will appreciate it, taking into account it is close to projects and it’s in melrose? 

I'm an investor myself and moved from Portland OR to Columbus OH to start house hacking.

You don't need to have an agent (although that would be great, but it's not a good use of their time until you are pre-approved and ready) because there are Open Houses every weekend in every market.

Plus, a house is a huge system built from smaller systems, and parts.
