great meeting up with you Steve. Best of luck withwhichhever strategy you decide upon .

if you were in the area, I'd say gotans execute your plan. Being out of state and doing things by proxy with family members, I'd say take the wholessale fee and run. 

Btw, thank you for your service!

I've used Rick Tifone with CCC Holdings. He was pretty good .Not sure about the 100% financing though. 

I think it looks fantastic! All you need is one family to love it. 

I see the post to the right in the pic. Is that for a pergola or roof? if the patio is covered with a roof, the stain should look good for a long time. If not, the sun fade could weather it a great deal after a few years. 

Either way, great work!

Brandt,

It seems like you've got great persistence. Keep going. The best opportunities always seem to come around right after you start thinking about quitting. So don't quit! 

You need to figure out a way for that company to MAKE room for you. Work in the conference room, in the janitors closet, whatever. Do what it takes to make it happen. 

Best of luck,

Bob

Fantastic deal. Congratulations! What other deals did you have on your track record that your investors could look back on?

Welcome Jeremy! 

A good rule of thumb is between 7% to 10% of hard construction costs.

Typically you would hire the architect, and then he/she subs out the other consultants. You could try to bid everything out separately, but usually the architect is pretty good as squeezing the best price out of the other consultants because they have an ongoing relationship. Once you do a few of these, it will be apparent who the best subconsultants are, and you can cherrypick to create your own dream team . Best of luck!

I've spent a lot of money on guru courses in the past too. But I put the blame on myself for taking the first steps on initial action, but not following through and following the shiny object to another type of investing.

@ Roy N. had a great idea about just digesting what's on the website and forums. I've also been reading and listening to all of the info on other investor's websites that post articles on BP. Lately I've been reading Michael Blank's website www.themichaelblank.com. I have not bought the course though.
