As that will at least help folks that you reach out to know that you are a real person, with a picture and professional bio.

I personally love when I get a buyer on my listing without an agent - if their offer isn't a lowball it's often times higher than what the seller is willing to do and I get a bigger commission.

I would call the city/town and ask general questions...wouldn't tell them you own some non-permitted ADUs.Find and attend some real estate networking events; maybe you'll meet another person who has dealt with this kind of situation.If you have the funds, you may want to talk with a local real estate attorney and see what they advise. 

For me personally, I find a tremendous amount of value in going through programs that help me learn at a much faster rate then what I could on my own as well as help me mitigate risk/self doubt.

Your rental property coverage is NOT going to cover tenants personal property. 

Obviously the key to a successful flip is to find solutions for the distressed person. 

I personally own horses and it's an insurance nightmare most of the time - especially with renting out stalls to non-owners. 

I don't blame the person giving the estimate as he too will get some portions of the work done from someone else.

If he did not meet the background check to be a renter that person cannot stay there. 

Does the company have a maintenance person that will handle small repairs or will you become responsible for every hole punched in a wall or other thing that gets broken and damaged.
