I purchased my very first property in Pensacola, FL during my flight training.

You may find that you can invest affordably within a day's travel and be able to keep it under control and much easier than a 4-5 hour flight away.Good luck!!

Not to mention we didn't put anything aside for capital reserves, court fees (in case of eviction), or SWEEP tickets for trash left out or any other issues.At 90k a unit you are at the VERY top of the market here, and will likely not see much appreciation either. 

We're leaving next week for a week long Costa Rica trip with no money into the flight and a nice resort stay.

Once you have your gal or guy or whomever  you can take your time getting bids on the big ticket items.

(they cut copper and wires)we put in to it 1 month of self work (learned from youtube) plus hired a professional (for the shower and kitchen) at total of 20k.we sold it just now for 35k (lost 7k)the good thing is that i can notice the mistakes:1. we've upgreaded the elctrical sistem at a bout 4k. most buyers dont care for that and it cause a lot of holes in the old plaster wall (much worse the dry wall)2. we didnt paint the outside- thinking it less important (its very important)3. we used stick on tiles instead of vinyl floor (1 days extra work), replaced windows that were old but not in a bad shape and a few more extras there and to littles here...4. to stress to buy (we were not local and had a flight back home) and to sell (we thought the snow slow the market down- its not so true)to summaries it:dont buy a house with electrical issues, bad windows, and rough exterior.dont be afraid from holes in the walls, old paint or pluming issues- those are reliability easy to fix and drop the purchase price dramatically.now we will buy 2 more houses with a purchase price of 12-20k, remodeling budget of 8-10k.we predicts a 15k profit on a flip and 20% roi on a rental (1 house for each niche)i leave you with some pictures

I am wondeirng if anyone has some great places they reccomend to buy big ticket items such as kitchen cabinets, flooring, paint, vanitys, etc. for a great price when remodeling a house in Connecticut?

They had to move closing back therefore I️ had to pay to change my plane ticket for closing.

It's not just a $250 southwest flight...and I'm not sure I can scale fast enough to make covering a $1000 flight worthwhile.  

The other option is to continue to open up walls around the affected area letting them know the additional cost and time frame and letting them know this is the best option to ensure the home passes inspection.These are some of the big-ticket items that every GC should discuss with their client to ensure there is always a great working relationship.
