.$900 for a refrigeratorI replace appliances with used appliances......hence a fridge cost no more than $250$4.8K for concrete piers to shore up a foundationI haven't bought a property needing foundation repair yet!

My focus, as I begin my journey in real estate investing is building a solid foundation through education and thorough market research.

I am looking to build my foundation first like all things in life.

Hi folks,My wife and I have a construction to permanent mortgage loan on land+home where we intended to build.Unfortunately, we found out that unexpected foundation work due to soft soil would likely make the project use triple our contingency reserve before even breaking ground.We are exploring our options on how to transfer our current financial obligations for this construction loan to some other loan offering (as moving forward with the project is now too financially risky).

We have just completely renovated a SFR (from the gound up, everything new, foundation, roof, HVAC, etc.). 

Hey, knowledge is one of the three foundations you need to be successful in real estate investing.

To make sure my foundation is solid, it will be the best choice to wait 6 months.  

Hey Chuck, Your plan has a solid foundation and shows a clear strategy for leveraging your current home equity to grow your real estate business.

We figured the septic permit from the county would be sufficient - but turns out our foundation quote/budget was way too low due to soft soil.We're trying to figure out if we can get the land under another type of financial instrument and continue with the RV plans without putting a home on the property. 

If you want to scale in the business, you are either going to need a strong balance sheet partner or consider syndication.Congrats, you've got a great foundation to start fromGino
