Go to open houses around there to get a feel for what finishes/layouts are yielding top dollar.

Just finished my first fix and flip and am getting ready to put it on the market in April 2017.

Someone who can hang and finish.

Wheelbarrow Profits book will be next after i finish The ABC's of Real Estate Investing book.I'm always looking for properties in Lake Charles, if I find something I'll definitely let you know and if you find something that you would like to partner up with let me know.

My wife and I are looking to begin our real estate venture with this property as we purchased at a great deal (please see below for break down): Property Type: Cape Cod, 3 beds, 1 bath, semi-finished basement, 50x100 lot.

We have a good relationship and basically after the job we are finishing up now (an apartment building rehab) he is looking to do some flips on his own and then eventually get into buy and hold. 

Our incomes have both risen steadily over the past year so we are actually hoping to move out of our current home in the Bay Area into more of a long term home in the same area in next 12 months, which would leave us with 2 rental properties, after which we would hopefully start saving to build our real estate portfolio further.However, having just finished our 2016 taxes, we learned that we are unable to claim any of the standard deductions including maintenance, depreciation, et cetera as we exceed the income limit, leaving us with a huge tax bill.  

I'm newbie; I know the basic as I'm finishing my real estate certification at UCLA.

Hello Everyone.My business partner and I (LLC) recently finished rehabbing our first property and finding tenants for it.
