Who are you guys/gals using to do residential floor plans (both current status and proposed) for flips and permits? 

It's hard to walk away when you see the extra dollars but from everything I've heard on BP, the nicer neighborhood is generally recommended for the newbie (or even those more experienced). 

They take 5% off the top and the management company adds an extra 5% to their commission for going through rented.com.

In my job I work with doctors, lawyers, other business people, who make money at their profession and use the extra to invest in real estate.

Details on my mortgage - Interest bearing Principle $197,000Deferred Principle $95,440Interest rate 4.7%20 year loan with 18 years left.I wanted to pay $7,000 extra a month for the Deferred Principle  but the lender company told me I cannot pay on the deferred principle while there is a interest principle and thats need to be paid off first.So my question is if i put a extra $7000 a month on the interest principle and pay off that early would I still have the remaining years to make payments on the deferred principle?

It may sound nice to pay a 5% management fee but the extra fees can add up to be more than the other company that charges 10% with no add-on fees.

So, i want all contractors to start signing a contract saying, among other things, No extra pay unless there is a change order approved.Only thing I'm not sure about is should I require all contractors to say they have liability insurance?

With all current comparable of 2/1 in the area with same sqft is around $385k-$400k, I converted to 3/2 with permits our contractor and I ran into many challenges with the city inspection and also tried to stay within budget.

It would take ten years of savings to make up for the $1,500 increase in deductible.Pay the extra $144 each year and have some peace of mind.
