Private Lender Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I recognize the importance of having a thorough understanding of the scope of work and associated expenses to make informed investment decisions.Therefore, I am seeking recommendations for experienced contractors or professionals in the area who specialize in property rehabilitation.

First of all, if you haven't done this before, I highly recommend partnering with someone with some experience in ground-up spec construction for 3-4 deals before breaking off on your own.

I'm closing on a property in Knoxville, TN later this month and looking for a recommendation from someone that has SFR's in Knoxville and really likes their Property Manager. 

Even though my wife is executrix, she shared the estate with two siblings and one thing she had to do before proceeding is she has to obtain a letter from her siblings that they had no objections to how the assets are distributed.

Obtaining a real estate salesperson license is relatively easy, thus the barrier to entry is nonexistent.

Oh one more tip, ask specific questions, like who is going to not say “yeah im great with communication” , be wary of this trap too because you want the PMs to focus on doing their jobs rather than answering 20 emails from each investor each week, time is our most valuable resource please don’t take up too much of it, when you say “yes” to something you are also saying “no” to something else (opportunity costs)Questions to ask:- what is the eviction process like after COVID 19 in your city (ask for details and differences beforehand)- what are the city rental regulations, what is the process to obtain a rental license, how would you rate this city compared to surrounding cities on difficulty with this process and working with landlords- how do you handle late fees and payment plans, if a tenant calls and says they’re going to be 5-9 days late but have been on time for 6 months what is your response- if multis - how do you handle tenant conflicts- why do they work in property management and how did they get there- if you could invest in any city in the state where would you and why (I love this question because it will tell you if they know where the most profitable areas are for investors and ROIs and hidden costs)- how is water/water bills handled in this city

What other neighborhoods other than Blue Hills would you recommend?

You are responsible for recording these yourself with the Clerk of the Superior Court (I recommend making a copy first).
