@Edouard Pierre would you message me his info as well - always good to have an agent in mind. We have worked with State Farm and Allstate before, but I like to get a couple quotes.

Hey Lauren Perry !! I'm also in Chicago. I definitely recommend listening to the BiggerPockets podcast from the beginning. Also grab a couple books and just read as much as possible. I work with a great team if you need any references - it's good to get set up on an MLS search so you can start looking at the inventory, prices and areas.

hahah apparently a couple of our posts were removed @Dorothy Wulf! ooops.

Yea it's been the norm! Definitely needs to be updated. Can't edit profile, and can't connect with others.

Dorothy Wulf what do you think?

welcome Michael Pelant !! $25k is great, don't think it's not. There's a lot of people that start with much less. Do you know if you're trying to do fix and flip or buy and hold? Or both?

You have to have the intention to live in it and the lenders have to think you're moving in.. or just move in for 6 months and then move when you're done fixing (unless it's not livable) . Pretty much FHA requires you to live in the property to qualify for the loan.

You can't transfer properties into an LLC easily without possibly triggering a due on sale clause. If you have the money just set up the LLC, if you don't do that just do what you can to get insurance on the projects you're working on.

How much is the amount in dispute?? If it's just the grass sod amount, just give it back to her and move on. Not worth the headache.

@Kevin Johnson Not exactly that this answers your question but if you just bought the place you live in now you should look into getting a "home warranty." It will help if stuff breaks.
