Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

Do you have any recommendations?

Typically starting with a smaller rehab budget of $50K or less (maybe a max of $75K) and avoiding a 1 to 1(or higher) ratio of purchase to rehab costs is recommend when you are first starting out. 

Too bad you can't buy something owner-occupied, put 5% down with the best interest rate, live in it for 12 months (and fix it up), rent it out and repeat the cycle.Here's some other info you might find useful:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

I wouldn't recommend Quit Claiming it during that time but otherwise that should be the only thing. 

That is what I am recommending to my landlords.

Financing might be a challenge.I would recommend consulting with a attorney, loan officer, and CPA to discuss your specific situation and determine the best course of action. 

Platforms like Procore, JobTread, Buildertrend, and FlipperForce have caught my eye, but I want to make sure I’m considering the best fit for my needs.Here’s what I’m looking for in a solution:Cost Estimation: A tool that accurately calculates material and labor costs.Project Oversight: Features to manage tasks, schedules, and budgets efficiently from start to finish.Vendor Integration: Real-time updates on pricing and inventory from suppliers like Home Depot or other suppliers.Material Suggestions: Automation or recommendations based on the rehab’s scope and specifications.Labor Planning: Tools to predict labor hours and staffing requirements for each phase of the project.For those of you who’ve used any of these platforms (or others), I’d love to hear your thoughts:Which software have you found most effective and why?

In regards to not replying, I would recommend reaching out to the Ohio Division of Real Estate (as they have to be licensed to be a PM).

@Joel Oh- if you are using a loan to acquire the property - the lender  requires  insurance ....if you own the property  free and  clear - your  choice  but I would still  recommend  insurance
