Welcome, sounds like you’re moving in a smart direction.

Be smart and conduct your due diligence. 

You don't want the advice of smart, experienced investors. 

They have a smart key system where you can do it yourself. 

@John Thedford I just think it is funny that people think we are not smart enough to find this stuff out.

When I went to take my test at the government building in the Financial District I was solicited with business cards and flyers by a couple of professionals representing firms, but I am wary of pursuing cold promoters in this fashion.I was curious, other than googling reviews, is there a smart way to vet which organization I may want to "park" my license at?

Transunion offers a "smart move" product that has been pretty solid in my experience.

You have stumbled on to something that is VERY smart, that many couples don't take advantage of. 

Hard to say exactly Leslie If you look below you will see it was smart shopping that helped. the faucets cost not much more than regular because I sought out clearance and odd lot dealers, goose neck faucet 129 water fall faucet 39 from amazonrainfall shower head 39 from amazonI spent 900 for both laundry center functionality wiring and plumbing and retrofitting the preexisting closet to function as a portal for the laundry center plus 400 a piece for each stack washer dryer from scratch and dent supply house.the most money over builder grade was the under cabinet lighting which was relatively cheap about 20.00and perhaps the fancier vanity lighting and living room and kitchen lighting purchased from odd lots 10 bucks a piece retail value 60-100 a piecelaminate over carpet was actually a bit of a savings.so overall maybe 1500 over normal renovating costs for both units.I purchased oops paint so I saved there.worked side by side with the contractor hands on in the dirtto save money and learn at the same time.and countless hours working on the design elements.on one unit I repurposed a track light and hung it as a vanity light it looked awesome and cost me $5.00I bought a round mirror from ikea for 14.00 so no extra money thereput a glass shelf underneath total cost for bathroom remodel not including vanity $ 27.00
