I am a newly licensed real estate agent, which is a decision I do not regret in my journey of RE investing. 

The reason to pull a permit for kitchens and baths is that it is so obvious that they are newly remodeled, and savvy buyers and Realtors often call the city and check permit status.

I’m working with the city and can probably get them to waive the back taxes because it is in their best interest for me to buy the remaining properties on the street and gentrify the newly rezoned downtown neighborhood.

Most STNL in quality areas is about a 5.5 to 6.5 cap right now tops with newly minted quality leases and locations.

ARV for a newly rehabbed home like this one is 190K, so this one would probably go for 175-180K on the open market to an owner occupent. 

Ask about asset protection, ask about legacy structure, ask about CPA and tax issues as you launch your business. 

However, in my experience, a license alone may not be sufficient to achieve proficiency in this field.I am planning to launch a beta testing group for a new real estate development pro forma that aims to teach literacy and pro forma modeling from the ground up.

We now have well screened residents who take care of the newly remodeled house and we enjoy better cash flow.

Successfully evicted the bad tenants and brought on newly qualified tenants.

Alternatively, in a hotter market that's closer to the city which will have a price point of $550-$600k we will be using a stager because that's a more demanding buyer who will expect a level of aesthetic and set up when arriving in a newly renovated home.
