My garage drain is draining very slowly and I think that it is clogged with tree roots.  

Am I missing anything or are there any red flags I should consider?

This isn't to say that you can do lesser quality work--especially when it comes to your mechanicals--but you won't have the pressure to make a sale at the completion of a rental, because it will be appealing to someone looking for somewhere to live for a year or 2 as opposed to having to meet the tastes of someone looking to put their roots down for 30 years or more.In that time, you can learn about drywall, plumbing, electrical, and how much material costs overall, while not having a super pressurized "out" date, or being worried about when to list.Starting with a nice, boring, 3 bed 1 bath rental is my advice for newbies, as you'll learn about what it will take to flip, without having the pressure of a flip over your head, or having your money tied up in.Also, investing by being a lender with someone more experienced than you may give you a good insight without having any pressure at all, and only observing the process while awaiting a check with a return at the end.

@Amber Beatty yeah that’s a huge red flag.

@Johan Yang  Mother's maiden name is a red flag, as well as the driver's license number. 

Typically though the loans require less red tape to get to the closing table in the form of underwriting.

If I have  vehicle but can turn in from the middle of an open loan that is very different than having to go all the way down to  a red light, do a u-turn if allowed, and drive up to get into your center.

The first time repaired last May , the root cause was not documented. 

I'm going to drink some Franzia Chillable Red (I never fail to pronounce it "Shee-ya-bleh") tonight in your honor.
