I am doing this completely remotely, which has been a massive pain/lesson learned (topic for another day).I signed a very high-level agreement (i.e. expectations simply say "drywall and paint") with him for drywall and paint work at my home for a total of $10KI have paid $5K as a down payment as well as ~$2K in materials over time, as neededThere have been multiple break-in's in the home, and he has done me favors of working with the police, and boarding things up.

I think the trick is knowing how to determine those up front. 

The idea behind ABCD classification of neighborhoods is to break up the market into for quadrants.

It's probably up to the individual parishes.

The money is tied up in the syndication and very illiquid, but it requires no work from you after the initial vetting. 

I think they are grasping at anything they can to make up for competition and direct bookings coming on strongly.

Do fees go up or down with less competition? 

@Kent KettellWe have been using loan to cost funding our deals the past three years, with community and credit unions, and the refinancing once stable to agency.we are able to get 80% of the rehab built into the loan, and it has allowed us to come up with less.

Please DM me as I am always baking off REI Software products and giving it a thumbs up/down, or meh.... etc.
