Not an outright restriction per se, but the lease does require the tenant to clear any construction or contractors through us. 

I've also checked out B2R and there's another similar one operating under almost the same constructs - firstkey lending. 

very smart way to construct the payment clause and avoid potential arguments down the line.Thanks for sharing

Hold no punches, Marines can handle constructive criticism :) 

Since our background for 35+ has been new construction production builders, we prefer the term redevelopment versus rehab or gut rehab.

We are very interested in a Buy and Hold strategy.I do have some basic construction skills, so I can spot things in homes we are looking to purchase and estimate how much it might cost to repair.  

To do so requires an intimate knowledge of the areas, streets, tenants, city, rental laws, and everything having to do woth construction

Plus we were the first tenants in his new construction.

(people pay a lot for that though)i currently work in construction and my girlfriend of 5 years is working on her RE license right now i have definitely been reading her books as she finishes. following her into that sounds like a good idea. i had also considered getting into home inspections.

I'd love to pick your brain about what the status of the wholesaling market is here.I have a background in construction and construction project management so I expect fix and flipping to be in my future once I get the ball rolling on the cash side.Osiris
