While real estate rehabbing could be an adventurous and lucrative strategy for real estate investors, it can also be an overwhelming and confusing venture that has a lot of moving parts. An excellent home rehab is similar to good plastic surgery: You should not notice the work, only the final result.

So, what do you have to know about real estate rehabbing before you dive in? Here it is broken down into five stages:

  1. *Inspect The Property - *

It is always better to spot issues and problems on the front end instead of being surprised down the road.

  1. Hire A Contractor- As a contractor can either make or break your rehab project, make sure to hire a licensed, insured, and qualified professional with referrals or online reviews.
  2. Create The Scope Of Work- In its simplest form, a construction SOW is a to-do list.
  3. Acquire All Necessary Permits And Paperwork- Permits prove that workers are insured and professional, and this can help you avoid some serious headaches.
  4. Manage The Rehab Work- Communicate with workers frequently by phone or in person, and have them send you photographs so you can see the progress.
