Additionally, buying in bulk can lead to discounts, which helps in reducing overall costs.

If you have any additional tips or red flags to watch out for when interviewing PMCs, I’d love to hear those as well.

Property taxes are a lot an additional 16-18k.

Seriously though, they will want additional details.There are hard money lenders who don't require all of that data but they want you to put down 30% of the money to buy and they will provide 70% at a high interest rate.

Separate “must-do for safety/function” from “nice-to-have to increase ARV.”For BRRRR, the only things that must be done upfront are the items an appraiser, inspector, or tenant would flag as functional or safety issues, plumbing, electrical, bathroom addition, paint, etc.

We only require a cleaning on move-out but we give our clients the option to require mid-stay cleans since that would be an additional expense for them. 

Opening bank accounts, insurance coverage, distribution of earnings, bank account signatories, hiring, additional equity infusion, first right of purchase, placing of liens and collateralization, investor payroll approval, etc etc.  

I agree with what @Erik Estrada said, the only thing I would add would be to factor in any additional documentation or investor approvals your specific lender might require, as that can sometimes extend the timeline a bit beyond the averages Erik mentioned.

A realistic timeline is 45 days for approval then an additional month for inspections/ reinspections and move in.  

I can't tell you how many people I've met through BiggerPockets who formed additional entities in specific states citing stronger charging order protection.
