I like using tenant proof material such as rubber laminate flooring and some cases tile through out the kitchen and living room areas.

For example, A/B properties may have better fixtures and materials.

It came with this "BRRRR Deal Package" which consists all of the tools and legal materials to go through the entire deal process.

Very few actually materialize and become a reality.You mentioned specifically an experienced broker with LOTS OF TIME and EXPERIENCE.

The before and after is simply outstanding, the house looks old from the outside, but very modern inside.So, just to put numbers out there:$77K Purchase price$23K Rehab (materials ,labor, other fees)$100K Total Acquisition CostI then went to a local bank, because all other big banks didnt allow for a cash out before 6 months.

Scott Meyer's material is gold!

Many policies for vacant property exclude theft with the exception that some (builders risk and COC) may cover theft of “building materials” - since the AC was already installed it would be a stretch to call it building materials.Last - I bet you have ACV coverage for this type of loss which means they will depreciate for the age of the AC before paying out on a claim.If the cost of the unit is $3000 and it’s 5 to 7+ years old it would be adjusted heavily for age - maybe 50%?

This time I’m blogging it with some pretty funny blog material, tutorials, and just trying to track the entire event from looking at the house to closing on it, Working on it and then selling it.The first one I did OK, the second one I allowed myself to get derailed with my daughters disastrous life and so I really took a beating on that and decided I needed  to get back up on the horse and stay focused and show myself that I can do it right this time and I did or I should say I am.  

I'm looking for a primarily DIY project, so I'd be interested in finding a lead "consultant" for the project, who would provide expertise and any tools, while I'd provide the labor, materials, etc as well as compensate them for their time.

Try using materials that are easily purchased and installed locally such as Home Depot and Lowe’s they always take back broken items no questions asked just purchase the same sink basket and return the old one
