Hello, im looking for great advice on hiring a virtual assistant from outside the country. Ive hired a virtual assistant in the state before and they had everything set up, but Philippines keeps coming up as a better source in relation to expenses and reliability.

What's a strategy to train the person and paying them?

Is there reliable places to look for the virtual assistant or a place i can offer a job opportunity?

What do you do to keep track of the work done and hours worked?

Thanks you.

Hi, I am working with a seller who owns about 40 sfh, he buys and hold but some of this rentals are not performing well and he's residing out of town. It's clear why they're not performing, some are in C neighborhoods, small square footage, some are boarded up and there's even a property with small family tombs from the 1800s. Now there are a few others with good potentials in upcoming neighborhoods and good square footage. If i was to put 5 to 10 properties under 1 contract as a portfolio so I can get them deeply discounted for 60 days. Is it possible that i can wholesale or close on some of this properties individually. I imagine I can't assign the contract since it's for a portfolio, but could I double close on some of these properties, maybe even give me enough capital to close on the portfolio and hold the not so good properties myself. What's a good strategy here? Do I just have to do 10 different contracts?
