Feel free to DM to discuss further over the phone.1.

I’m starting my RE investing journey with a family home that was deeded to me.

DM me if you want to discuss.- Mariah

Also discuss with the contractor the time expected for the project if its small, mid or large and if it needs permits and how long would it take for permitting and all, also payment terms, make sure you go with payment terms that are fair to you and the contractor (so many terms but most common is monthly based on completed work with an upfront for materials) and ALWAYS keep the last payment until project is closed (retainage) and you do your walkthrough and if there's any issues you write them down and provide the contractor with (punch list to release the retainer once they're corrected or fixed). read about how to deal with contractors and always ask for references but it really depends on how big the job is, personally I wouldn't spend too much time doing due diligence on small jobs such as door latches or shelving rather on additions, layout change and other scopes.Good luck!

My wife and myself discussed terms for renewal while running errands(we also have discussed next years rent increase) , we added 3 new terms to the current lease for the renewal.

I'd ask them if the handle just jiggles around completely loose, and if that is the case, the wire clip just needs to be re attached - 2 second fix and then wash your hands.   

So when we had a re inspection done, it turned out they only did half the repairs and the ones they did were “temporary.”

Hey - I used to work for a RE Investor/Owner/Operator shop.

In addition to numerous tradition RE related investments (most individually owned but some as LP), here are our unusual investments (both are RE related, but not what is common on this site)- I have mentioned this one a few times on BP, when fracking was just starting to be known to the general public (near turn of century), we purchased mineral rights in North Dakota.  

Meaning we aren't re negotiating the rent but if you renew you could get $x off the next month.
