@Brandon OrtizFrom my experience, choosing the right investment strategy means aligning it with your financial goals, resources, and time commitment.

Lauderdale, FL• North Palm Beach, FL• Plantation, FL• Pompano Beach, FLThese acquisitions were done creatively, assuming the existing loans via subject-to deals without inspections.

What is the best way to find good general contractors (reasonably priced, delivers on time, committed to quality) ?

I negotiated through the original contract and then put the rest of the deal together with an existing group of investors.

"Cross selling" is _________________:a) When you go to your sales job wearing clothes more typically worn by the opposite gender.b) Just like it sounds: literally selling crucifixes. c) A strategy wherein a business strives to encourage existing customers to purchase adjacent products complementary to an item that the customer has already bought in a prior transaction, or is currently on the verge of purchasing.d) All of the above.

Marcus Hey Marcus, I would recommend shadowing a few different agents before committing.

It makes you look like you’re asking for a new build, not an existing home. 2) Anytime you mention big items like HVAC/roof.

@Benoy Varghese When I take over a property I send a letter to the existing tenants introducing myself and telling them where to send rent and provide the necessary information regarding my policy for dealing with maintenance issues.

These don't require you to live in the property, so you could close with the existing tenants in place and then move in once their leases expire.

Also, I'm not sure if you are demoing an existing structure, if the structure is freestanding, etc, but this will obviously greatly affect your overall budget.For our project, most of the material prices are in line with expectations, but where we've been shocked with recent increases is the soft cost.
