The GC can use subcontractors but it all has to go through the GC. before you close on the loan, there is a huge stack of paperwork that you have to go through and the GC has to be selected and finalized and you must turn in the borrowers agreement, signed bid and scope of work, and the GC has lots of paperwork as well.The GC you select must be licensed bonded and insured, provide several references.A little about my experience-The extra paperwork that the borrower and the GC must fill out for the 203k approval is pretty extensive.

Many of us including, myself have blog/websites with extensive materials on our "niche".

I have extensive experience in flipping homes.

However, my initial uneducated assumption is that because of the older age of the real estate in Great Falls and the tough weather environment, extensive repairs and upkeep expenses would greatly cut into cash flows.Do you find this to be true in your Great Falls investments and if so, how do you counteract or avoid those expenses?

Extensive invasive or demolition techniques to locate and sample mold inside walls and so forth will not be used.

Couple that with Zapier and Twilio and it is much more extensible IMO.

Has anyone done an extension on an open ended loan?
