Do people just pay contractors to do all the rehabbing for them?
When buying a fixer upper, if you have no experience rehabbing, can you still make money if you pay for all the work to be done?
I may buy a rental out of state and don’t want to fly their to fix it up.
I know prices can get upwards of 60k

You most deffinatly can. The most successful flippers all they do is go after the next deal. They have teams of contractors to fix the places so they can work more on there buisness and less swinging hammers. You need someone you trust to run the rehab and keep everyone accountable. If all you are doing is calling contractors from afar they will do bare minimum and take shortcuts to make it more profitable to them. Be carefull. Hope this helps.
