I have to keep cheat sheets in order to do basic tasks such as placing a new outgoing message for a property.  

Do one task at a time in each app so you can compare apples to apples.Load a property with pictures and details.Market that property.See what your marketing looks like from the public's perspective.Submit a fake application to see how easy the process is.

You are essentially being the GC and keeping the project on budget and free of "shrinkage"(overcharge or theft).If your contractor is going to the suppliers for supplies they should be paid for that work/time via hourly rate agreed to for that task OR you can do COST-PLUS, meaning whatever the cost of supplies plus some agreed upon percentage that is added to the total to compensate for the time spent by contractor delivering supplies, this can get tricky if you don't know what you're doing, and contractors can exploit this too, if they are experienced and so inclined.

I'm not saying drop out and follow your passion to become a painter in a hippie commune, nor am I saying become a drug dealer to get rich quick, but there has to be a happy medium between the two and money alone is not the best consideration for finding that happy medium.Also, gotta take you to task a bit for asking a question and then arguing with experienced people who answer it and give you good advice that you don't want to hear.

I have asked many to quote standard tasks such as a retaining wall or driveway.

In Canada, we have really strict anti-spam laws so I do not have access to that many lists.

If you don't do the homework, you will give them the impression you may not be up to the task of doing the homework with real estate investing.
