Make sure you have a reliable GC in place prior to buying a deal.

So from my experience here is what you can consider: Having a reliable technician or two on standby for unexpected issues. 

If they're any good, they will take down any deal they find themselves or send it to a preferred list of people they have already been working with, who they trust to respond quickly, close reliably, solve problems effectively, and be pleasant to work with.You come across as rather arrogant in your posts.

@Frank PatalanoFinding reliable & dependable contractors.

It's worth consulting a local attorney or using a reliable legal service to ensure it complies with state and local laws.

To me the quadplex would be dual purpose, while you are not living there it serves as a reliable stream of income, once you move there, you could live in 1 of the units while you build your permanent home, and you could also use it for when your family comes over for large gatherings.A 2nd option might be to build an RV park, Unless their are zoning restrictions, you should be able to build one fairly inexpensive, with a septic system and either public water or a well, you can keep your costs to a minimum by doing gravel roads, which are easier to remove later if you don't want them. 

I am giving you reliable advice.

I'm particularly interested in networking with investors who are focused on growing their portfolios in the Fargo area and beyond.If you're looking for a reliable partner to discuss your financing needs or just want to connect and share insights, I'd love to hear from you.

Pretty easy: use an enzyme cleaner to break down urine, works reliably.  

We still have to network and create a reliable team, so this would serve us as time to meet contractors/agents/other investors/etc...We are planning to start investing ~$200k depending on the deal.I'm writing this post to get some advice from somebody who might be more experienced in New York, and possibly to start creating some connections.
