@Chris Tolstoy, Just please tell me you have a QI lined up. 

Also, how many of you had a sellers agent lined up while searching for your first flip?

I checked with the city, and I dont think adding a meter, water supply, and sewer line are an economically feasible option.

A couple ideas are on my mind currently #1 take out a line of credit on the house i am in now, or use cash on hand, to go buy another sfh to live in and either rent this current houses and or air bnb it??

Like @Rick Pozos said, just get simple business cards from Vista print with your name, number, email, and a line that says real estate investor so people know.

You could try for personal line of credit and then refinance and pay that back.

OK, let's run down the list for C-class rentals:Toilets - usually Kohler, sometimes American StandardRefrigeratorsMicrowavesStoves/ovensWashersDryersDishwashers - Frigidaire has let us down hard in the past in multiple categories and at multiple price points (this includes the Gallery line).

some of the recent shows appear to be more in line with reality in terms of the rehab budget.

We give you a dedicated line for your tenants to callWe diagnose if the issue is an emergency or notWe troubleshoot the issue with our own team to try and get a fix done over the phoneWe will get a contractor out to the home asap if we can't fix the emergency on the phoneIf it is a standard request, we'll email you and see if you want us to send someone out to fix itIf you think a service like ours would save you time and hassle please reach out.

That's how you make money in pre foreclosure world but the laws changed in our states so you have to be pretty cautious how you do these and it was those changes that led to me abandoned this method of buying property.. but early in the process like mentioned above it was rare to be able to buy those.. remember your not the only one trolling these someone with a notice of default is going to get no less than 200 or so yellow letters and hammered by real estate agents for a listing.Along with the fact that they have probably lived in the house for a year or more for free.. so that motivation Is down the line.. and forget about fixing their credit at this point its trashed..
