Man Retwit has some egotistical pricks on it. Blocked for this comment this morning. Believe it or not, many of us are very content paying off our debt, not having investors, using community banks, spending time with our families, cooking with our wives, etc.

Been paying my egress window guy around $4k/window. Would’ve been $16k for 4 windows on my duplex we’re remodeling. Decided my crew and I would do it instead. We got it done for ~$1500/window and saved myself $10k. Don’t care what anyone says. That scales

Been doing black ceilings in basements of my student rentals lately. Saves money, keeps mechanicals exposed, and less drywall for students to punch through

Occasionally show houses to students before we are done with them. Showed a group this week and they asked if we could put the nice flooring (LVP) over this floor in the living & dining room. I love it lol

Neighbor called me in for no permit for the fence I put up. City wanted to see fence line compared to property line. I get a survey. Turns out the neighbor is 15ft over the property line. So the neighbor paid me $3k last week to deed over that 15ft to him. Expensive phone call!

First day of the new flip house. City backed the dumpster straight into the corner of the house. Off to a great start!

Before and after of one of the kitchens on the duplex we’ve been remodeling. Passed final inspection this week. Property was pretty much a full gut job. New electrical, plumbing, HVAC, etc. Incredibly happy with how things turned out but man I never want to do one this big

DIY epoxied plywood countertops. All in for ~$300. If these hold up, will probably do this exclusively in remodels from now on. Incredibly easy and inexpensive

Last day of lease today. Tenant just asked what time they need to be out of the house because they haven’t found a new place to move to yet. This should be a fun turnover

Would highly recommend going through your yard with a magnet after all contractors and subs are finished. Pulled about 10 of these out of a rental house yard today after contractor said he “cleaned up”

Just had a house we recently remodeled appraise $30k low. Was the worst appraisal I’ve ever seen. Appraiser valued a large shed on a comp as equivalent to the 900sqft garage with 10ft ceilings on my property. Had another “comp” that needed $40k of work labeled as “similar

Working on a duplex right now where one side used to be a dentist office. We were able to eliminate three of the exam rooms and turn them into an open living room & kitchen by putting up LVL beams. Certainly learning a lot from this money pit!

When I bought this house, the basement ceilings were old drywall and less than 7ft tall. To open things up, we tore down the drywall and painted the ceiling joists black. Turned out really cool and feels way more open!

Took these laminate countertops from boring to new with a $200 epoxy paint kit. 100% doing this for every house moving forward (as long as they hold up)
