Thank you SamI got a project that I’m willing to put in contact in Redwood City... it’s a distressed home... contractor I took gave an estimate matching these numbers you mentioned...are you a cash buyer here in the Bay Area?

I've been analyzing deals for a few weeks now and am getting more comfortable with the process, however, one of the biggest hurdles thus far for me has been trying to estimate what a rehab will cost on the varying properties I've looked at. 

Your inputs have me feeling good about 11-14% cash-on-cash conservative estimates. 

Master bedroom had a low points ranging from -0.7" to -3.5""The house has experienced settling of the foundation""It is my opinion that the foundation remains structurally sound and re-leveling is not required at this time.During our inspection of the home we came across the following:Noticeable sloping when walking around.Buckling hardwood floors in the master bedroomCracked and delaminated tile in the master bathroomCracked bricks and mortar joints on the exteriorHome inspector said there is definitely evidence of foundation movementPermapier came out to provide a free estimate and evaluation and suggested multiple piers along master bedroom as well as some other areas of the home. 

Rehab Costs Total Rehab Costs ($110,000.00) Total ($110,000.00)After Repair Value $575,000.00When I look at your report all the estimated repairs lines just say "N/A. "  So are you just guessing?

Do you have a timeline and estimate for the reno?

It sounds simple, but depending on how many documents/checks you'd be signing, it might be easy to slip up.My instinct is to say that if you need to ask the question, chances are that it's better to keep your life simple and just personally be the member of the RI LLC and have it be separate from your MA LLC.But I'm not a lawyer or an accountant and you should probably ask this question to one of each to get advice for your specific situation.

Thank you @Mike Burkett i would love to get that calculator when you have a chance.

Get an estimate on the repair. 

I’m curious what questions and topics you’d be interested in hearing about if you had the chance to interview experts in the field of real estate.
