Value is being added by doing a full gut to the property, new mechanicals (plumbing, electric, and HCAV), as well as new cosmetics throughout.

congratulations on a job well done!

It tracks the areas you are good in and asks you less of those questions and asks you more where you are not doing well.

In the mean time, build a one-room or studio dwelling on the property as well, and then after a year move back to FL.Really wondering if there's a quicker option than "work for a few years to make money and then start." 

But I have bought and sold and helped others buy and sell many properties as well as managed many properties.  

Would you be looking to finance the lot as well as the build?

We got a lot of sweat equity out of the deal as well How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

Thanks in AdvanceHey John,  I'm licensed agent in kentucky, and just recently relocated in california and licensed agent in california as well. 

If you guys work well together …then give them another project and so on!

You’re going to need an estate planner, an attorney, and if the owner is over 65 you darn well better have an elder advisor or whatever California calls them.
