Over the last 3 months we’ve spent $70k in rehab work. 1 property flooded, big storm across from the ocean we gutted it and it’s under construction 1 property had a lead incident, tenants ended up buying a house and we’re abating the unit. 

That's why my gut is saying go with the pros to hopefully not let this get any bigger than it already is.I haven't met with the company yet, just spoke with the lady over the phone to set up an appointment who just seemed to be a receptionist. 

I would go with your gut on which home you would rather live in.

G'Day everyone,I have a funny but educational lesson to share with all of you guys today.Especially all of my "alpha male" mates lolI want you guys to STOP being egoistic A$$*****Yes, you read that correctly.Since we established Ohio Cashflow in April of 2014 we have had many good but also many bad times.The life of a business owner/entrepreneur or even a real estate investor sure is a rollercoaster of a ride.My biggest fault and some of my biggest mistakes as a business owner come from poor people judgment.When it comes to picking employees, partners and which investors to work with and which to turn down.This hasn't been my strong side but I believe with time and more experience I will get better.Without a doubt, the biggest mistake I have made over the years is by not listening to the most influential individual ofOhio Cashflow's success.My partner in business and in life.The beautiful and almighty @Dominique Osborn.Most of you don't know her as she works with the team from the behind the scenes (Behind every "lame" man, there is a great woman lol).Making sure that everything runs smoothly and patiently fixes all of my F@#$ ups lolShe was the one that picked all of the losers over the years.And for whatever reason, I didn't listen.I think it was a BS ego thing.So for all of you loud mouth and "loud ego" men out there like me.Tame your bloody ego and listen to others that might be better at picking the good, bad and the ugly.Women have a different instinct to us men and in my opinion are much better than us when it comes to evaluating people.Let's call it the "motherly protective instinct".Another thing.When you call us to buy a property and say "I need to speak to my wife"Big mistake.You should say "Engelo, can you please speak to my wife".Gents, I promise that my accent is much better than yours and I'll be able to sway the decision our way hahahaJokes...Happy investing and much success

I don't know all the specifics of the deal you're in, but my gut reaction is that if you're taking this risk, you need to get paid, either in the form of interest or a higher price. 

I have two questions:1) What is the average rehab cost/sqft  (cosmetic, light rehab, and full gut) in the Charlotte market?

My initial instinct is to make sure you understand the occupancy expectations for residential but especially the commercial risk portion when underwriting.

Looking to do a complete gut, new roof etc.

The current owners gutted the inside down to the support walls.

No guts, no glory.
