Looking for great quality work, not overly priced with fix and flips and knowledgeable with the process of the 203 K FHA loan in the South Miami market.

If you are house hacking you may want to take into consideration that you have to live somewhere and if the cost of hacking is less than if you were renting even a small negative cashflow is not bad if their is upside such as ability to increase rent, appreciation, tax deduction, quality of life, etc. 

@Victor Kyi - In my opinion the reduction of risk investment wise comes in the quality of the asset (which in new construction means it will be in a good shape for a little while) and second in your ability to predict the cash flow based on what it would currently go for.

Issues finding quality tenants? 

We're looking for units that could attract a quality tenant, and one that may stay for awhile, so we look for things like dishwashers, laundry, decent storage in the kitchen, etc.

@Brian GarrettI would say light value add.The buildings are good quality and have been well-maintained so there are not many major issues to address.

You need to know the strategy that the client wants to I use, what their parameters are, how to source good quality deals, etc. 

What is the best place to market for quality contractors?

I’m not saying you can’t, but one of my tenants works for FabMac and they’re relatively poor quality he says.

It’s not always the quantity of life that matters, but the quality.
