General cost of boots on the ground

[Patrick Johnson]

All,

       I have ramped up my wholesaling efforts in distant markets and have began to have decent success. As this is the case I have the need for boots on the ground in these areas. I have been paying a wide range for the services of these individuals, from $100 to $300, from fellow investors with not much experience to experienced contractors and contracting consultants. My question is for the more experienced investors who have been doing this far longer than I have. How much on average do you pay for boots on the ground when you're doing deals virtually? I have no complaints regardless, as these are minor numbers vs. the outcome of the closings that come behind them. I would just like to have a standard model to stick to.

Thanks in advance
