Just starting this process, but are their agent who simply deal with laundromats… or should we deal with a business broker?

Have already started #2!!

I actually work for a mortgage company and am a loan officer myself but as I just started i'm trying to wrap my head around all the programs and markets.My broker doesn't focus on investors so it might be wise to find someone who does and learn from them. 

I bet you are starting the call by telling them they are in preforeclosure.

The floor needs a cleaning -- but next - should I sand the floors and then put a varnish on them?

I started a thread about this very thing a year or two back with no real answer. 

Hello, everyoneIt's been tough to find a GC for our project: we found 8 teams/companies, and only 5 were GCs, we had 5 bids, we liked the systematic approach of only 3 of them, and none of them still have any time to start the project.

I am planning to start a direct booking site for my short-term rentals.

You can start counting your hours once the property is under contract.

If he starts asking questions about why I don't want to renew his lease, do I need to provide any answers?
