They deliver, will take the old appliance and offer a 1 year warranty. 

A lot of units are sitting 10–18 days instead of the old “gone in a week.”Entry-level flips under $260K are still moving, but anything above that needs to be extremely clean to get attention.For those buying or managing in the Triad What trends are you seeing with rents, DOM, and investor activity going into Q1?

@Naveen Himthani the housing stock in Pittsburgh is mostly very old, so you will always want to be more conservative with your capex and maintenance numbers here compared to areas where the properties are newer.

I'm 22 years old and want to start building my portfolio as soon as possible.

heheI miss the Midwest's "simple" mentality of my common folks.Even tho, as you mentioned the weather can get brutal.It's always a tough gig to do deals from afar unless buying turnkey.Even then, turnkey is not worth it unless the portfolio is big.As soon as you can, move to the market you want to invest in and with time you might become "institutionalized" to it just like I did with Toledo hahaI put Ohio Cashflow on the back burner 3 years ago as I got burnt out on working with investors lolWe only sell from time to time to our existing book of business and if I like the specific investor hahaI list most deals on the MLS and once sold, I clean my hands.No need to babysit the never satisfied and disgruntled landlords expecting retirement from 1 turnkey property...Unfortunately, it is what it is and I ate $#@% for many years before I said enough is enough heheOz Realty has been the bread and butter for us and our main focus since we shifted focus.Crazy that I'm even typing this as I hated PM for many years and considered it just as the "necessary evil" in order to offer a turnkey product.Now, if I could turn back time, I'd never do turnkey and would only do PM hehe.Everything happens for a reason mate.Granted, it took 7+ years to create a lean and efficient PM machine heheI'm in Toledo every month for 7-10 days so feel free to hit me up whenever you are in town.All the best mate 🙏 @Engelo Rumora , haha, a new book would be valid for sure, as things do change fast in this world, looking forward to it. 

He dotted all i's and crossed all t's and my goal was accomplished.I know this post is old but if you have any more questions let me know and I would be more than happy to answer as my experience was top notch.

For example:Finding reliable boots-on-the-ground supportAccurately projecting rehab numbers or rental ratesCoordinating leasing/turnovers long-distanceTrusting contractors/vendorsUnderstanding local landlord requirements or city-specific inspectionsI’m really interested in hearing the real-world pain points (positive or negative) from people who have tried it or are actively doing it.

My best guess would be an old vent pipe or old p-trap.

One thing that often gets overlooked in the fix-and-flip world?

Quote from @Elealeh Fulmaran: Shahab, start with these three that turn theory into action fast: 1) The Book on Rental Property Investing by Brandon Turner for clear numbers, deal anatomy, and beginner-friendly frameworks; 2) Real Estate by the Numbers by J Scott and Dave Meyer to level up underwriting, sensitivity checks, and real-world decision rules; 3) The One Thing by Gary Keller to lock your focus so you actually execute your first deal instead of dabbling.
