I know both platforms will penalize me for cancelling...

However, I've heard this same nightmare scenario from numerous investors in a local REIA.It's a really stupid law meant to protect sub-contractors from getting screwed but it just screws someone else, the investor who already paid enough to pay everyone, instead of the person that the sub-contractor should go after... the GC.And yeah, in California, it's a safe bet to bet that a permit is required for just about anything.

But would SUP, kayaks, fun island, swim platform etc...satisfy the same requirement?

With contractors hard to find and materials costs still elevated well above where they were pre-pandemic, BRRRRing is not nearly as safe a bet as it once was, especially not with a ticking clock of a hard money lender.I've noticed on the podcast lately they have started saying things about "Just getting in" and "not trying to find the perfect deal", but just something that "gets you in the game"...

Network with people and make regular posts about your business on these platforms.4.

noticed only thing that Zillow does not have is Coordinating Repairs & Maintenance or add handyman details to the platform for effective communications between tenant and local handyman.

Your margins will probably be higher if you're on several platforms and have a software to link them up, but I think Airbnb is the best platform to start with from my experience due to the large customer base.

Your best bet is to get quotes for an independent insurance agent.

An attorney will be your best bet.

You bet big, you can lose big.If your wife is onboard with all this, start slow and see how you both like it.Find out how much your current home will rent out for - and then use 90% of that for your estimates.
