Delays are a pain so are some investors..

Well the guys only worked about half of a day today on the Hopkins house because Home Depot decided not to leave the delivery like they normally do.  Actually my contractor should have been there but that’s another story.  He says they delivered at 6:30AM…   Flipping houses is fun when everything goes well but when it doesn’t …. well you get the picture.    They say they made some good progress today anyway (I don’t know because I didn’t make it to that site today).     The days are a little longer now, so that’s a plus.    I’ll surely be checking up on them in the AM.

I consider myself to be a nice guy in this game of house flipping.    Almost every other investor/flipper I know is aggressive and, well… not so nice.    I guess it’s something that comes with too many years in the game.     Just dealing with tenants and contractors alone can drive a sane man crazy.    I ran into an investor friend today that is one of the worst.  This guy is a cross between Vince Vaughn and your cranky old granddad .    I can’t take too much of him in such a short period of time, so I made up an excuse and kept it moving.    I had too much on my plate today anyway and now I need to get back to work.    It’s 5:47pm and the second half is just getting started.
