To get the juice, you have to squeeze.What systems have made it manageable (weekly rent, strict house rules, software, on-site management, etc.)?

I'm an agent and investor/developer in Los Angeles so I really understand this pretty well!

How are you developing the property insurance requirements that will protect you, and which your borrower must meet?

You’ll learn about contractors, lenders, suppliers, and many other relationships you will need to develop. 

Think of it as a stepping stone in a longer-term wealth-building journey, not the final destination.One big thing that makes Miami extra tough: developers scoop up a lot of deals off-market before individuals ever see them.

Hi Peter — thank you, this is incredibly helpful and exactly the investor workflow I’m trying to build around.The “see 100 → narrow to 10” mindset is so real, and the 60–70% rule is one of the cleanest quick filters before diving into full underwriting.That’s actually why we started developing FlipScore™ inside FixerFlip — to give investors a fast first-pass signal based on:✅ ARV estimate✅ purchase discount vs ARV✅ rehab complexity (light vs heavy)✅ holding cost sensitivity✅ risk flagsSo the app can quickly answer: “Worth a deeper look, or easy pass?”

Glad you’re here and excited to see your journey develop.

On top of that, the macroeconomics are strong — population growth, job growth, and massive developments from companies like Intel, Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and Honda expanding here.

Hey BiggerPockets members,I’m looking to connect with developers or flippers who could use extra hands on their deals(if you are doing something else I still would like to connect).

I haven't personally used these folks, but I heard about them recently in a local property management event:  https://tmgnorthwest.com/rental-property-inspections/I use the same inspection software/app they do.
