Hire it done or do it yourself

[Cheryl Packham]

Hello everyone!!

I am writing a research paper for a strategic economics class.  My focus is on how real estate investors decide whether to hire aspects of their business or do it themselves.  What I would like is for people to walk me through their process on how they make these decisions.  For example, if you decided to hire a person to send out mailers, was this done because you no longer had the time, you didn't like the work, or you felt you were more valuable doing other parts of your business. 

I look forward to reading your responses and please let me know in your response if you are willing to be quoted in my paper.  It will not be published, just summited to my professor. 

Thank you in advance~
