So, you'd suggest what to start out?

I also highly suggest teaming up with a broker who you'd want to build a relationship with and truly understands the ins and outs of different underwriting guidelines.

I'm between jobs and need an investor. 

However, the family is currently going through job loss but are up to date with their rent payments.

I suggest buying a brick building if you go that route- was in a similar situation in 2018 and bought a wood building but wish i had gone with brickstraight up chicago real estate investor podcast is a great way to learn what others are doing all over the city

I call it the "Investor Journey"Here is the sequence I suggest:1.

It makes it very easy to find customers even with bad support.I am leaning towards going with the click plank option as I was told, that when it clicks together it adds another substrate or "floor" basically and that with the attached underlayment does a pretty good job of reducing noise.I looked at adding gypsum concrete (gypcrete), self leveling cementitious subfloors, wool insulation under the plywood, and another type of cement type floor, but they all have their pros and cons and doesn't seem to be worth the extra money in the end. 

In this case each job its associated with.If you can afford it and are scaling some what you can enlist a proper accounting team.

I ask him a few more granular scope of work questions like: the number of man hours and how many guys he is going to have on the job.

Any suggestions will be very much appreciate.
