We end up eating the cost of things like nails, putty, caulk, buckets, paint pans, rollers, putty knives, trowels ect due to waste and the tools ect walking off with the contractors.  

The house is right down the street so I could walk there no problem.Is there anyway I could take out a particular loan that would allow me for no downpayment?

I typically invested in the stock market 10k a year and after so many years of the roller coaster I decided that instead I would invest in single family homes, duplexes and triplexes using my yearly stock market money and cashflow from rentals.I only post because I had to walk away from the deal because it didn't fit the plan I set up and being new to the game I feel until I get x amount of units under my wing and more expericance that I should stick to the plan.I have had a lot of friends make good money flipping and I have some who worked there butts off for 14 cents an hour.

To me that was the equivalent of walking up to the plate off the bench and hitting a grand slam in the bottom of the ninth of the World Series.On the downside, my wife inherited a rental property and her parents' home when they both passed away suddenly within weeks of each other.

But as things like this get as big as it does, you get the people who simply walk around handing out business cards.

So i called the broker and set up a meeting to walk through it.

Have an "Open House" on the first one, walk around the neighborhood and personally hand an invitation to the folks that live there.

We are mid progress on another one and currently have a short sale under contract but may walk sweety for various repair issues.  

A young lady probably wouldn't mind walking their dog alone in a "B" area. 

Does anyone have an app that they use while walking through a house they use to estimate rehabs?
