I'm good with power tools and plans, but plants and pictures aren't my specialty.

I think it's a great tool for property owners.

I dont give them any tools, I dont pay them per hour, I dont tell them when to work. here is a code to the lockbox, here is he project. the price to remodel the bathroom is say $1000, tiles, grout, glue, durrock is on the jobsite. when you do it is not my problem. it cannot take more than 3 days. all that is written in the contract. they do not have their own insurance, I have a builders risk insurance to cover myself. will that work in case he fells off the bathtub and brakes his leg ?

No one can tell you if its a good deal without knowing the ARV and estimated repairs.Redfin has a decent tool to evaluate a homes value, try that.

Review the pod casts and visit the learn section and read articles that are of interest to you; utilize the key word tool and you could include Miami and you will be notified whenever that term is utilized.

If you are not totally sure how much certain items might cost you IN YOUR city …would you recommend insurance adjuster tool called Xactware ?

thank you for sharing the spreadsheet as it a very useful tool.

In Central Florida the housing choice is rural houses, old (pre 1950 houses) or houses in an HOA.A well run HOA is a very good tool for the investor.

If you dont spend the time to manage the rehab your looking at all sorts of problems and setting yourself up for failure:Contractors not doing it the way you want itRedos then cost you big timeWorkers standing around doing nothing without directionThefts of materials, tools, etcWorkers not closing up or locking it down well enough and break ins happenVandalismMost people working on your home just dont care as much and get lazy, again costing big time and not getting the same quality as if you yourself were doing it.

So it took us more time then just changing locks.Along with temp fixing the frame with to secure it (we will replace the damaged wood at a later point - not sure if we will wait till the crazy bf is gone or when she moves out, I really do not want to keep paying for it over and over if it becomes a repeat occurrence), we had to go back to our house and get another dead bolt to add to the back door, and more tools (1 hr round trip).I am wondering how much do I charge for the repairs?
