Btw, about the need for rehab, I'm talking about what I think should be fairly straightforward things, like replacing carpeting, repairing drywall, but not a complete gutting and remodeling.

Quote from @Sofia De Santos Tavarez: Hello, my husband and I are looking to do our first rehab in a different city than where we live (we live in Austin and looking to buy in El Paso), and are wondering how one determines and writes a scope of work and determine what material to buy for what.

I was wondering about the reputation of Steadily in terms of paying out claims.

Given that I recently created a Series LLC here in TX, and there still doesn't appear to be straightforward options in this regard, I figured I would bring it up again. 

was wondering the same thing ...Originally posted by @Autumn Allen:Relighting this thread, anyone use Freedomsoft (FS) in 2018 or 2019?

Hi Chris from the U.P. of Michigan.Congratulations on deciding to get into real estate investing with your first Buy, Rehab, Rent, Re-finance, and Repeat or BRRRR and you are wondering where to start and who you should add to your team first.It is good you have cash or cash equivalents to buy the property and complete the repairs.As far as who to have on your team first, I would say an investor friendly Realtor who can help you find deals and introduce you to the rest of the team like a good property inspector to hopefully let you know about potentially expensive repairs early before buying the property so you can buy it well or not buy it at all.

In a sense, we feel we will be giving back a bit - so many wonderful owners have helped us in our years of travel.

And they wonder why there isn't enough housing in these blue states. 

But you won't realize that until after the fact when you are sitting at home with the 4 books that came with your $45,000 seminar payment and you wondering "What's my next step?"  

I was planning on building the home in the traditional stick built style in my budget but am wondering if doing prefab may save some money/have other benefits.
