If I was looking to get started in this sector I would start reaching out to city council members and find who I need to connect with and ask them the best way to get this mission accomplished and they likely will tell you more than you were expecting.Best of luck and what a great cause!

@Tyler Cornfieldshort answer - i don't know if you are or not. ask some lenders.but i'll say this about out of state investing at this time. 

This happen to anyone else?

This reduces my monthly payment by ~$100 a month.Am I correct to think that I am essentially paying $3500 for this refinance?

Hey @Clint Kelly, I was going to recommend something like BuilderTrend but from what you've said, QuickBooks Online (QBO_ does exactly what you need.The key here is you need an REI-savvy bookkeeping professional since you stated your current bookkeeper is dropping the ball.What you want is super easy to accomplish for a flipping company using QBO.We have Clients who flip close to 100 properties/year and everything is super organized for each property using QBO.It's the operator, not the software in this case.Hope that helps!

If you're new to this, it's important to get to know the market inside and out. 

Seems like we’ve been wrong in this endeavor as much or more than we’ve been correct.  

This website is amazing for education, networking, and so much more. 

But, this all depends on what you need an architect for.  

YouTube has a lot of great videos for this.
