There are tons of great articles on BP about how to handle and make the experience go smoother with contractors.   

Hey Colin,A friend mentioned your article in the Business Review recently.

I am new to the Biggerpockets community, although I have read a ton of discussions, articles, and Brandon's book on how to invest with little (or no) downpayment.

The true economic (possibly physical) vacancy rateTo hedge this, I'm stress testing deal analysis with 10-15% (at least) off the ARV and rents and doubling vacancy. 

Have a look at BP's blog where new articles are published every day: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog 4.

@Jeffrey Rittenour Great advice thank you I will look more into another type of loan other than the HFA loan due to not wanting to commit a crime buying property that I am physically not living in

You can find numerous BP articles on these strategies and they are very, very powerful strategies. 

Sorry that I don't have much advice, I just thought your article was relatable.
