My husbands w2 isn’t as strong as it was a year ago, lots of factors with the business that are thankfully just growing pains, but we’ve decided to start flipping to get extra cash in hand to scale more quickly, and eventually allow my husband to leave his w2 job.

Makes me think one (or more) of the following is going on:War zone, very difficult tenantsLow economic and/or physical vacancyMajor renovations required, perhaps to the point of making this deal untenableDo your homework.The amount of time this will take to manage really depends on many of the factors above.

.- Personal Articles: Coverage for belongings that have a special or collectors valuesuch as Jewelery, Furs, Fine Arts, Collectibles, etc...Your age should not be a factor on the pricing but, depending on the company these other factors may get you credits:- Insurance Score (company pulls certain info out of your credit report)It is not your credit score but generally better credit will result in a better score- Time at your job- Education level- time at current residence Good Luck & feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

Because of that love factor, the spouse that doesn't get what they want doesn't hold a grudge or anything.

Dallas, Phoenix, and Charlotte are more cash flow focused markets.A couple of important factors I consider for a market are job growth, population growth, and wage growth.

@Cory WeberCongrats on the baby...If you focus on calling your sphere of influence (friends, family, co-workers, vendors you might know), and open houses on the weekends, you don't have to go cold turkey.

I figure a good looking deal at first could be easily losing money after factoring the added refi payments

If time is the biggest factor, get them in the house before closing, doing as-built drawings, and preparing/permitting before you even close.good luck, 

Finally, don't forget to factor in what is easiest for you.

Your circle of influence will shape who you become.
