We are about to close on out second SFR and it has a relatively new well working oil burner for heat.

Well then I can't be drinking non-fat soy mocha double shot with foam drinks that cost $5 a pop.  

No one will sell you a general liability policy for less than 10 times the insurance a PA contractor needs, so...As you can see, pretty much the whole Pennsylvania GC registration licensing system is all smoke and mirrors designed to give the public a cheap illusion of confidence in an army of bumbling handymen and to keep a second army of insurance industry lobbyists fat and happy.It's a bit different if you want an electrician's license for the city, and plumbing licenses, yeah, they're the real deal.There is absolutely no conflict between being a PA-registered or Pittsburgh-licensed GC and having a real estate license.

Even though I have a crew, I tend to put my retail buyer properties on the back burner for a month or so and focus on the properties that I will wholesale or keep as a rental 

I agree with Wayne in that it is unlikely there is enough fat on those properties that both the winning bidder and you could mark up the sales price in order to sell to an end buyer.

Sometimes...lol.Unless this house is a real steal...I'd probably recommend puttng it on the back burner then moving on.

HUD is a great back burner

And his lucky agent probably got a nice fat 3-3.5% of that!

A good coach could be the difference between paychecks and Big Fat paychecks!

Keep all that fat out of whatever you are trying to do.
