My goals are to open my own one stop shop for investors, with wholesale properties, lending, an agent, and attorney for closings and paperwork.

I'm stoked on the amount of growth and ever increasing quality of posts and topics I'm seeing.Short questions: What is the best method, or your personal recommendation, for transitioning Mom and Pop power retail shopping centers into properties with multiple National Credit chains as tenants?

Interested in meeting other local BP members at a coffee shop or something?

You are correct that shops like this do have more of an incentive to keep the repairs legit and prices tight.  

Shop around and make them want your business.  

Banks generally don't like concentration risk either so shopping around for each new loan may be necessary.  

Since this is a labor only contract, this needs to be a turn-key job, so I wont pay you until each job is done, you get paid after bath tub/shower/toilet are done, and after installing all laminate floor only.I'll be buying the materials, let's go to Home Depot and shop what you need.

If you went to the store to buy a stove, you would shop around, right?  

@Jerry Stanford  Turn Key is a term for companies whose business is primarily to buy rehab and then to sell to investors rental properties. many are vertically intergrated IEthey control the buy ( buy the asset themselves) contract for rehab  and then have a PM company that they own or control or have very close ties to.this allows the investor ( usually out of state or out of country) with one stop shopping.

I too, work full-time.That aside, the poor decisions, non-responsiveness, exorbitant repair charges, lack of detailed answers to your inquiries, etc. are each potentially deal-breakers on their own but collectively, I'd absolutely be be jumping ship if it were my property.I haven't yet changed PM's or term'd a PM agreement so I cannot speak to the specific legalities but would certainly assume that if I were in your shoes, I would shop around NOW!
