Her new strategy is to buy a place in an older building and completely remodel the interior.

Even the hardiest of remodeling contractors can react to high levels of mold.

I used to work for electrical contractors, and also remodeled some houses with a general contractor but wasn't in tune with the charge to the homeowner.

I killed one during this never-ending remodelling project and bought another.

Here are two real examples...54 Mission Ave, San Rafael, CA3/3 @ 2500ft2, huge corner lot, mostly original, in the middle of a bathroom remodel. Lives

My wife and I are definitely considering using the kids as property managers, One is going to University of West Georgia and one is at the University of North Georgia.I also appreciate the advice on buying a small 3/2 house and not spending the $$ to remodel.

I not only love real-estate business/investment but also remodeling and am very handy!

There is a thread on here, "profit from non-profits" I believe, a long thread but goes through several tactics for operator/investors.I'd rather sell and finance and not fix toilets as a second job, but, whatever, it's all good if you like it. :)

My goal is to have some cash flow rentals in 5 years which is the time I plan to retire from my career as a Correctional Officer.I also plan to do some rehabbing and flipping, since I enjoy so much remodeling and working on projects on my own home.

I don't know a thing about fixing toilets etc..
