What should come first Reno bid or inspection ?? Please help

[Jose Garcia]

Hello BP I am looking to acquire an as is sale to do the BRRRR strategy, but confused as to whether I should have a GC look at it and come up with a bid (well multiple bids in one day) or have an inspection done to see what problems there are before having a GC come out.

Having a bid done will be less costly than getting the inspection, but I don’t want to have the GC overlook or miss something that needs attention. Whereas the inspection lays out all physical problems if I’m not mistaken.

I just don’t want big ticket items to pop out of no where , ie. foundation problems, mold, termites or whatever else that can be an unexpected headache.

Please help? I appreciate all tips advice and solutions thanks !
