Hello,
There is tons of information here but some of it can be overwhelming and we need some personalized information. I already see loads I can haul on DAT etc but I'm unsure of the legal requirements. (MC# DOT# etc) I'd like to get to work as quickly and with as little headache as possible.
I am a hands on real estate investor who is looking for something to do in between flips. (It's not nearly as glamorous as on TV) I already own a Sprinter 3500 free & clear so I feel like I should be putting it to work even when there's no houses to gut/flip. My fiance is a nurse and once covid hit I couldn't stand to see her go to work without proper PPE so I formed a company and was able to import masks but at nearly zero profit margin. (Literally pennies) I'm trying to figure out the transportation side of things so I personally can haul expedited loads in my Sprinter until each house sells & I buy another. At that point I'll focus on the house and then when I'm done rehabbing it & waiting for it to sell I will jump back in the van and start hauling again. I could also hire a driver to take over while I'm working on the houses but it seems like there may not be enough profit for that?
Basically it would be really nice to set myself up to where i'm bringing in money regularly as opposed to every 3-4 months when I sell a house. How to I position myself to do that both legally and professionally? I figure I cant work for someone else because they'll need me to be consistent and I want to haul completely on my schedule. Can I still work under someone else's MC# or would I need to obtain my own? If I obtain my own will people still work with me being brand new?
