Out of Area Investing Advice

[Catherine Morel]

Hello BP!

I need some advice...

I’m looking into properties out of my area (5 hours away from me) I have a full time job thus preventing me from actually going to see the property.

I’ve contacted some contractors (yelp, and homeadvisors) to give me some quotes on how much the rehab would be. (Still waiting for reply)

Aside from online sites where else do you recommend I look for other contractors? How do I work with and manage these contractors if I won’t be able to actually be there to meet them or pass by to see their progress??

Thanks in advance !
