Post: Investor Friendly Design-Build Firms for rehab in Oakland

- Posts 6
- Votes 3
I have the opportunity to buy a SFH in Oakland well under market value. The house needs a complete rehab, including a new roof and foundation work. I'd like to convert it from a 2/1 to a 2/2 and so will need to request permits from the city.
I'm looking for a design-build firm that can be a one stop shop for me, as I will be managing this from out of state. Does any one have recommendations of who to work with? Most firms that I find online focus on people building their luxurious dream homes. My plan is to BRRR the property so I'd like to find a firm that has experience working with investors.
Thanks in advance!

Thank you @James Carlson! I’ll gladly reach out to Nate 😊.
HI Lessley,
I'm in a similar situation. Currently setting up my primary home to be listed on AirBnB part time. Did you end up hiring Nate? How did it go?

Hi Terry, I messaged you privately, but yes, it's been hard to get good help.

Thanks for the advice. I am reaching out to the companies I find through that, but would love to get a personal recommendation from investors who have worked with a PM in the area.

New long distance investor here. I have a lead on a property very close to the University of Akron that makes a lot of sense for me. As I am out of state, I need to find a property manager willing to manage it for me, and my agent's contacts don't manage college student housing. Do any of you have PMs that work in the Akron area you could recommend?
Thank you

Hey guys, long distance investor here. I have a lead on a property in Akron that could work really well, but it is college student housing and having a hard time finding a property manager that would be willing to manage it for me. Can any of you recommend a property manager in the Akron area?
Thanks very much!
