It's not so much that your property won't recover, it's can you make those massive payments until it does.The generic (yet real) example would be if a home has increased say 150% over it's 10-11 year low, and then dips 25%, 30% or even 50% (highly doubt it's dipping 50% but hey whatever) in theory you'd still be alright.

Build a team that will shoot you straight and looks out for your best interest! 

I'm curious; are you leaving a generic message? 

With her background in design and managing contractors, we make a great team for fix and flips and fix and hold investments.Our long-term investment goals are buy and hold rentals, and I'm interested in learning more about fix and flip, wholetailing, and wholesaling to build capital for future investments.

Hi Biggerpockets Team,I am renovating my house and studio unit and am in need of good cabinets and counter tops.So far I have talked to a few vendors that deal with custom to RTA style kitchen cabinets and they are either way too expensive or the quality was sub-par for a primary residence.I also looked at a couple of countertop vendors and quartz counter tops are expensive!

At this stage, Ashley, I would focus on finding trusted partners and building the team out. 

Interested in hearing about a personal experience related to delayed financing, where an investor teamed up with a bank to pull money out in a relatively short period of time in order to reinvest equity in another property without the 1-2 year seasoning.  

Originally posted by @Russell Brazil:@Jay Hinrichs wife is an agent in Portland, likely with that experience. thanks Russ  we don't work with one off lot buyers..but I can answer the questions generically. hookup fees are 25 to 50k in this market. so pic and average and your fine.other than that as long as your utls are to the lot and its a legal lot of record your good to go.LOTS are sought after in a big way.. pretty tough pickings for individuals to beat the builders out if they do means they paid full boat retail and maybe more.. 

Then keep networking and learning so you can build your team.
