Key is to make sure you are not cash poor.What I am seeing right now in some sub2 FB groups and a few posts here on BP is people who got close to 100% financing on properties, have a tenant in them but need a major repair and have no funds for that repair. 

Have you been going to local meetups in your area to meet other people flipping locally?

Companies and people/investor change overtime so it's not a bad idea to see if they're still the best fit for how you would like to see the properties managed.

People don't like surprises.
