Joe Asamoah -- he is a prominent section 8 investor in DC.

Unfortunately, factors like a hardening property market, inflation, labor shortages, increased building costs, and an increase in claims frequency and severity have caused our carriers to require increases to both rates and coverage amount minimums to keep up with these market conditions.

I said, Joe, I thought you were an ex-ray  tech.

Hi Joe,My team uses Dan Schaus with Schaus Law.

They’re invoicing me for 6 men labor for a 1000 sq.

Just so you know on my newest purchase I am looking for renovation money as well as financing and the bank is looking for formal quotes as to the materials needed and the amount/cost of the labor that will be involved.

I plan to build versus buy because Im currently working for my father, who is a general contractor in Fl, and will save on the construction costs because I can do most of the work for little cost other than materials. it would be minimum labor cost and no profit cost from contractor.

Quote from @Joe S.: What kind of money do you have invested in that mirror house? 

Rising labor and material costs2.

In Texas HVAC/Heaters are one system $700 for a bathroom re-pipeI began recently upgrading my 1980s bathrooms with New Tub, New Bath/Shower faucets, and NICE, NEW tile from tub to ceiling......Cost labor and materials, $1700 per bathroom.$12K turn on large home, included new high quality carpet and full repaintHere lies the major deviation: Property type matters.....I have NO LARGE HOMES, I install NO CARPET.
