Flipping is having a job that makes money.

I started to become too trusting of 1 contractor, and the company jacked up the prices, did really poor quality jobs, took a really long time, such that by the time the houses hit the market and the escalation of costs, I've made no money.

I also don't really want to spend money to sit with an attorney.

Then opendoor or similar company gets in touch with a homewoner (because they are spend an insane amount of money on marketing to reach sellers that are not in tune with the market).

I graduated college just last year and have been really interested in ways to make money other than working for an employer.

Be nice to your tenants by providing a quality product and service for the money they pay you.  

They owned the home outright and fronted the money, I swung hammers and paint brushes as much as possible.

The cheap money and gurus are the greatest sign of the changing tide.

So can go into a neighborhood's GIS system and look up what the individual parcels are assessed at and omit the building (also referred to as improvements), typically the real value of nearby parcels is somewhere between 50% and 75% of what the county claims; example: if the Fredericksburg GIS system claims that a certain house's land is assessed at 50K then your investor should NOT buy it at more than 37,500 at the VERY most.One MAJOR point to take into consideration is: an investor that you will help buying a parcel of land is an investor that will have less money to make future purchases.Good luck, and fee free to shoot me any questions as I'm very familiar with the Fredericksburg area and won't hesitate landing a helping hand to fellow BP.

I had to threaten to take her to small claims court and detail all the various grievances I'd bring against her in order to get my money back.)Basically, don't be a jerk and your tenants won't have any reason to be unhappy.
