All sounds good to me. 

Hello BP, 

Just curious what you guys are paying for your painting subcontractors? I have a great painter who has given me great prices, but I know that he's not making what he should be on some of the jobs. I am trying to systematize some stuff this year so we can do 7 flips and one buy and hold. Last year we essentially did 4, but two are kind of bleeding into this year. 

I would like to standardize with him as much as possible so that we both know the price of the house without him having to come out to give an estimate every time. Just based on J Scott's numbers I am overpaying for interior paint but underpaying for exterior stuff. 

I am trying to eliminate trips to Sherwin Williams or dragging paint from one job to the next. If there is a way to have him supply all of the paint I think it would be ideal. 

Right now we are at $1.25 per floor SF interior and I supply paint and materials. We haven't established numbers for the various tasks outside and other details really.

Thoughts??

Hey Guys,

Off market!!! Wrote my first letter, landed first deal, and made my first million.... ok not the million part, but the rest is true, and it made me more than my day job at the time made in a year! Then I quit said day job and have been doing this full time since!! 

Nail my systems.

Happy New Year and happy investing Moore County!!

Hope you all start the new year of on the right foot by building your RE career! The best way to do that is by networking! And the best way to network (Obviously) is by coming out to this month's Meetup!! We will be having this month's Meetup at the same place. Hickory Tavern in Southern Pines from 6:30-9:30ish. 

You have been to party after party and event after event for everybody else the past few weeks, so make some time for yourself and your career!! 

Casual conversations with the investors working this area always makes for a great time. 

No fees, just buy your own food and drinks.

See you there!! 

P.S. Let me know if you think you'll be coming. It helps me ballpark how many tables to set aside. Although, there is ALWAYS room for more!!!

2nd Tuesday of every month, 6:30 at hickory tavern.  We try to keep it the same time and place and always the second Tuesday. Will see you in January!

Howdy howdy Moore County! It's almost here! That is, the monthly Moore County RE meetup. Sorry there isn't any more notice then this guys, I've been so busy working the RE that I didn't realize how soon it was!

This coming Tuesday, December 13th, at the Hickory Tavern in Southern Pines. Come on out from 6:30-9:30 for some laid back conversation and some good food. Get a chance to network and learn with some of the greatest investors this side of the Mason Dixon..... Well...  maybe at least this side of Raleigh ;-P. Seriously, though, You will be glad you came. 

P.S. If you can, let me know if you are coming so that I have a ballpark figure on the size of the party. But PLEASE, absolutely come even if you don't let me know. There is always room for more! 

See you there!!

No cost, it's all very informal. Just whatever you buy at the restaurant.
