Hi Paul, I hang my license and recommend Show Appeal Realty, located in Chandler. They are a growing, midsize realty with a collection of FT agents, PT agents, and investor/agents. They are very investor friendly and have favorable fees. In fact, the realty is owned by one of the biggest flippers in the valley, Brandon Hunt.
The Designated Broker is Bonnie Morgan. PM me and I'll give you her contact info.
Good luck!

Dennis, I use Tim Walch from Scottsdale CPAs. He's both a CPA and an investor so he's well versed.

Scott,
I use Podio. It's free and can be customized to your needs.

Congrats on a phenomenal job! I especially like the flooring and white cabinets, which are very "in" right now. And the return you made was quite good in our competitive Phoenix market.
I have a few questions:
1) Was your HVAC fix straightforward or did it get hairy (i.e. new unit, reducting, evap in the loop)?
2) How did you find private funding, particularly at such a great rate?
Thanks, Mike

Agree that BMO is a good option. I typically use Granite Concepts in Gilbert, AZ. They are one-stop shopping for cabinets, granite, install, and design. I know others who often use both Diamond Kitchen and Tanners.
PM if you need more info. Happy to help.

PM me and I'll share my thoughts. Forum post will get flagged for promotion. That's a no-no here on BP.

Hard money is how I did it.
With hard money, you likely have a good deal if a) the numbers still work at hard money rates and b) the lender is actually willing to lend on it.

I suggest listening to the podcasts. They're priceless.
