A lot of us felt the same way when we got started.

Low overhead and constant cashflow. 

.- THeir bids though will be the highest as someone has to pay for the additional overhead.2) Work with Class D contractors that are desperate and will do free bids.- Good luck getting them to show up on time, stay on schedule, NOT hit you with multiple price increases, do quality work and will actually come back and do warranty work.3) Pay someone like @Matthew Irish-Jones enough to do a bid with the understanding they will credit the charge back to you if you buy that property and hire them to do the work.Good luck:)

Most reputable contractors lose money on a 10K reno, the overhead is too much to make the numbers work. 

It is no longer a seller's market where a flip sells instantly. 

The advantage of a company is that they have a crew who can cover each other during those times. 

But, the overhead of maintaining an LLC is pretty high compared to just getting more liability insurance, so you have to decide what is best for you in the long run.

A house, even a 500 K house?

Quote from @Chris Colosky: Hi everyone,So I had to get a SDIRA, fund it, and win a property all within 2 weeks. 

Most traditional lenders will only approve you for a mortgage if you have permanent citizenship with a Green Card, or temporary citizenship with H1B status.
