it was actually a really quick flip. 

I don't always take her suggestions but it gives me a good idea on what to do.Kitchen Gut (medium grade SS appliances & Granite) - about $40/sq ftHVAC - Duct work - $2.50/sq ftHVAC - Compressor - $1,750 + ($1.00/sq ft)HVAC - Heating Unit - $2,000Those are quick estimate numbers that I have found to be good for North Texas.

It also doesn't have to take days... they sell quick dry mud and could be finished up in a day if it is a limited area. 

@Mark AinleySuper quick RE101.

Im a single person...I have never 1031 exchanged anything before, so not sure if id have to do this to buy another without owing a ton of taxes or could i sell it and just be safe of paying capital gains with the sale being under the 250k for single limit?

If they are professional, they can explain this quickly and easily.

You purchase (close on the purchase and go on title), do nothing or almost nothing to the property, mark it up and resell it typically very quickly.2.

Majority American investors took a head wind lost their safe heaven from 401K recently.

I thought this was safe entry into the real estate investing.

Not the best option, so I am searching still as I need to open a business account pretty quickly for my new rental.
