Competing with local investors as remote investor

[Collin Emerson Miller]

Hi BP community, 

I am a California-based investor looking to execute a fix-and-flip in Virginia and a hurtle I want to tackle is to form a strategy for competing with local investors.  So, how can a remote flipper compete with local investors? I understand that this can be difficult, but I would still like to hear an answer nonetheless.

Thank you!
