We go with one contractor so if there is water damage we don't get in a finger pointing match.

So call around, get a feel for what each one likes, and choose one that's a good match for where you are investing and the resources you have.  

No dishwasher that I can see, and the appliances don't match.  

One note tho, no one wins in a pissing match.

I have been sending out direct mail letters for a almost two months now, looking for a flip, and also "trying" to wholesale any deal that doesn't match my criteria.

This specific building gets messier and messier: It's in a flood zone so any improvements will have to make the whole building match the new flood code (building's worth about $50k; repairs will be at least $50k); the building is in a historic district; when SAR shored the building, they put the shoring on the foundation of the adjacent building...meaning the structural integrity of the adjacent building may be in question; the first engineering company didn't want to take on this project due to liability issues...the list goes on.It's a total PITA.  

You can find matching knob and deadbolt for $15 many times.

I've done a lot of testing with Facebook and YouTube and they just don't perform like PPC (search).For AdWords, make sure you understand the "match types" - exact, broad, phrase, modified broad, etc.  

once you get preliminary title back make sure it matches what you have in the purchase and sales agreement.  

If you buy Jan 1- May 31, it is even easier - I just send a copy of my HUD via their on-line system and they match the purchase price.
