I am a very hands on person and am picky about my own contractors/ repairs.

I asked the person who called but could not get straight answers.

It's pretty obvious that they want money, but I guess how much, only time will tell.

Money from these investments will be used to fund more fix and flips and for every 5 completed fix and flips, we will use a portion of that capital to secure 1 rental property (either SFR or MFR).TIME FRAME See GOALS section for short and long term time frames.

It's pretty common to get half a month's rent, which is then split between you and your brokerage.My best advice is to focus completely on finding a company or mentor who is at the top of their game and NOT AT ALL ON THE MONEY. 

I would not think of it as "getting money back".

I would talk to your tax person make sure you do this right for both people on this transaction .

Sometimes the homes we buy to live in don't become the best rentals and your money can be used better on a different asset, especially in Denver. 

I could start a course and start charging people "How to Not Lose Money in the Midwest"...lol.

It's a waste of money.
