How did you find your rehab crew and how was the process of the renovation (did u go over budget, stay under budget, any unexpected problems arise?)

Yeah, first off "Just go buy one" leaves out where plenty of investors fail, you've got to buy right or you will almost surely lose money, there's always unexpected expenses.

I didn't find him in the local police stations and I'm surprised none of his workers (college aged guys) haven't come for their things either.

Trying to remember back to your BP podcast but seem to remember you doing some work up in Andover and that area (I grew up with Boxford so know Andover / NA pretty well and surprised to hear there are "flippable" properties over there).

Surprisingly, my best leads have been the ones I get for network marketing.
