I trained myself through work experience as an employee of architects and builders to prepare for these projects.How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

Being able to smoothly transition to a 30-year mortgage if a flip stalls?

do you have training that makes it likely that you will be successful? 

You could potentially train your cleaners to do this, although they may not be comfortable with it, and that will still cost extra because it’s outside of their normal scope.

We even have the Brightline train as an option here.Could this work andwhat could I be missing? 

@Harvey Gill You’re not wrong — but it’s deeper than just slow responses.Most agents are trained around owner-occupant sales, not investment deals.

Was training helpful? 

If you do decide to go that route, make sure you're underwriting the deal with the HELOC interest and repayment terms factored in, and build in extra margin for delays or cost overruns.There’s no one-size-fits-all answer, but my advice would be to treat your first deal like a training ground.

Read through the sales training book "How To Master The Art of Selling Anything" by Tom Hopkins.

Quote from @Andres Montbrun: I’ve seen a few Cape Coral builds stall out when the builder overextended or lacked a solid local crew.
