Hello all,Currently doing a medium scale renovation on a newly acquired rental and it crossed my mind to asked here- to find out what has worked best for fellow buy and hold investors- Is it better for contractors to provide materials vs the investor?

Hello BP Community,I am looking to acquire this SFH for positive cash flow.

@Jonathan Johnson here is a template [Short introduction paragraph – indicate you are submitting this letter with the intent to do a specific action (purchase, partner, acquire, license, etc.).

Took me two months to fill a vacancy in a SFH in Georgia that I acquired in October and had rent ready by November.  

My advice hire someone to do this stuff for you we have some investors that simply pay us when they acquire 2500$Until you get really good it's worth it ..Vonn&Andy

It was listed for $750000, but I was able to acquire it for $600000.

I agree with you 100% I plan on owning the lot first before trying to get a loan or acquiring any money.

We have acquired several properties from them, they are somewhat difficult to work with as they are not always available and don't return phone calls quickly, however they do bring the deal to closing without any surprises.

I'm in the process of acquiring a property with my wife in Baltimore County, Maryland.

Again, there are those cowboys who really think that making hard money loans is a way to acquire property - but if you meet one of them, turn 180 degrees and RUN.Joffrey Long
