Holy hell, what are these advices gone from a simple question.Greg Rollins Under CA law, you can pull permit, not a homeowner but an owner-builder, do not mistake a homeowner from a rented house to pull an owner-builder and fly with the city.

I learned from every mistake. 

I found my last experience in listing a house with a realtor excessive for the amount of work required by the agent in my opinion,, granted it was move in ready unoccupied house...and sold in 10 days... but my mistake was not putting it on FSBO and MLS myself.

On the 450k home with 60k profit, it feels a like there is a little more room for mistakes. 

 Mistakes happen to the best of us but the best of us learn how to turn it around.

But for this one I hope the story helps some people out and they don’t make some of the same mistakes!

Do not mistake the fact that paying 100% for a property in cash, is somehow improving your CF wince you have no debt.  

Stay tuned for pics, numbers, and a list of mistakes and learning opportunities.

Let's hope i didn't miss anything, but there's enough meat on the bone to absorb any beginner mistakes (I hope, lol).

I keep making mistakes every day.
