Yes, at the end of the day money may have come through simple deliverable processes, but I doubt I'd ever call them easy.

I don't care how well you rehab the house and if U pull all permits if your tenant base is abusing and transient your goose is cooked before you ever started.. 

I am now in the process of contacting a GC and getting to know who can do what at a fair price AND ON TIME.My question: has any experienced flipper ever partnered up with a neophyte and showed him the ropes.

If it's a larger organization, feel free to inquire about their different staff qualifications.2.

I used to rely on my long term 1 year lease tenants but recently they’ve been complaining they need repairs now but nobody’s ever home to let in the repair man.To rent it yourself - Post on Zillow, Craiglist and Facebook Marketplace, Facebook Yardsale, Student Offcampus Housing Pages, Church/community pages, your furnished rental with great pictures and lots of keywords.

However I must admit I also always invest in other sources of incomes so I invest in private companies where there is offered some control to me the investor and I do not ever depend on any management team that does not offer me decision making power such as in publicly traded companies.

The reality is that they are the bad tenants having attitude issues that no landlord would ever want.

I run a real estate and mortgage brokerage out of LA so if you ever have any questions with creative financing or forecasting properties values, I'd be happy to help.

Feel free to reach out if I can ever help you.I also host the Brevard Real Estate Investors Association meeting.

The answer to your question is risk.Did you ever notice when you really need money, banks say no, but when you've got money they're looking to give it to you?
