I would look at the ROE differences between what you can make now by selling, including the yield on that lump sum if reinvested in the current market conditions, versus what the property will be worth at a point in the future (5 years, 10 years, etc).

If you're going the umbrella insurance route, perhaps see if it will cover you for several things including just the routine slip and fall (like mold or earthquake).

It's important to find people you trust to do it right because I can't tell you how many times we've taken on properties and the furniture weren't set up correctly/things are falling off.  

Includes new flooring, paint, kitchen, HVAC, siding and cosmetic updates.

I ask all these questions as it's important to know if you have a FULL Application that you can make real decisions off of.

Inexpensive, intuitive, and has a lot of good features, including the late fee penalty.

First, is ROI the most important metric to you? 

@Travis MainI have seen listings that say if square footage is important, then it's up to the buyer to confirm it .I'd just use the county Info with some form of disclaimer as listed above.Not all realtors are correct on everything, heck not all attorneys are correct on everything.

Using the traditional A-D Market scale is not going to really touch on the importance of choosing the right market to invest in.

You will need to work with a tax professional to analyze your current tax situation (income, deductions, activities, etc.) as well as projected income from the fix and flip business.The benefits have to outweigh the costs (payroll costs, additional tax returns, more stringent reporting and compliance requirements, etc.).One important note - an S Corp is not an entity; it is a tax election.
