Flips · Starter topicHow much contingency should I carry on a first flip?

EquityOps Community · Pinned · Featured

Start with a line-item rehab scope, then carry contingency for hidden conditions, timeline slips, and lender interest. Newer investors usually need more cushion because they have fewer trusted vendor signals.

Rentals · Starter topicHow should I think about shared utilities across a main STR and rear apartment?

EquityOps Community · Featured

Track each income stream separately, then keep shared utilities at the property level unless you have a clear allocation method. The property-level answer matters most for cash flow.
