Hi All,In the middle of my first flip in the RVA area and I am finding myself at Lowe’s or Home Depot for a lot of items like doors, windows, kitchen cabinets, floors, appliances, etc.

Now, to get some other contractor quotes I would: Ask Neighbors who recently had work completed who they used, when driving around make note of contractors working in the area and write down their information, go to Home Depot and inquire with their bathroom area to see what contractors they recommend, use a website such as thumbtack.com or angieslist.com...

We’ve all been lost in a Home Depot before, even though we hate to admit it!

We've also improved insulation, upgraded furnaces, and provided garden space for our tenants.

I called Home Depot and the cheapest sliding glass door I found with high quality / high quantity reviews was about $500.

Maintenance: Shut down the water heater and drain with a garden hose.

Investment Info:Condo buy & hold investment in Palm Beach Gardens.

Land Park is a beautiful area.  95864 is another pretty solid area, you have the McMansions, Garden of the Gods, but then these is another area that you have to be very careful of in that zipcode.  

For personal and logistical reasons (i.e. work, social, and school), we're primarily interested in the following neighborhoods: Greenpoint, Williamsburg, Bushwick (bordering Williamsburg), Crown Heights, Prospect Heights, and Prospect Lefferts Gardens.

Flatbush seemed like it would be a logical extension of the Prospect Lefferts Garden boom, but for some reason people flocked to Bushwick / Bed-Stuy instead.
