When I got mine replaced I got three estimates from the companies below:CenterPoint Energy (I use to work for them) Standard Heating & Air ConditioningComfort Heating & Air Conditioning

I like that they are energy efficient, and water is drained via same drain as the washer, rather than expelled via the vents where lint often gets caught (and rarely cleaned). 

I do not pay contractors up front...been burned before.

If you are going to look for info on wholesaling on BP, you will crash and burn.

Any feedback is appreciatedmy situation right now is my credit score is about 640 im working to bring it up my mom wants to sell her house to me and i want to turn it into a rental next year then the year after i want to buy a duplex and house hack that while i go to school in san antonio texas right now i am in the navy and stationed in washington state and wondering if i should just buy and rent out the house and only focus on that or should i only focus on the duplex i intend to live in or stick the original plan and do both im new and i just want to make sure i dont dig myself into a hole i cant get out off and crash and burn before i even stare.thank you for any comments you leave.

During my learning curve, we have burned up our cash. even though we have built up our equity and cash flow nicely with rentals.

A lot of people here seem (to me at least) to have turned real estate into a job.If you'd rather spend your energy, say perhaps working a job that gives you $25k to invest in turnkey properties, that is perfectly fine and even reasonable.If you do go turnkey, be sure to check the company and the deal out thoroughly. 

We have a ruined economy for many people, burned out downtown storefronts, in many cities, an election coming up, an up in the air police system, cities that don't agree with states, states that don't agree with anybody.

I would look for cash-flowing properties that I could outsource the property management and use my time and energy to building the relationships and strategy to scale my operation.Take the first action, but balance with patience!

Many people here were burned after buying a property for far more than assessed value, and nobody, not their broker nor attorney, told them the 1st citywide revaluation in 30 years was coming.
