This helps me see the big picture and helps me make adjustments, or to just learn something new, throughout the year.Currently I am working on making my reports more attractive and easier to read, and a property analysis tool!

To invest out of state successfully, focus on building a strong local team (agent, PM, contractors), automating deal analysis, and using contingencies to protect yourself.

Rent analysis is around $3400-3500/m which will net me $1200-1300 cash flow if self-managed.

For example, Ohio Real Title provides property lien search services across all 88 counties in Ohio, making it a convenient option for obtaining a thorough analysis before bidding on a property.Ohio Real Title is the company I use, and we have a joint venture with them.

Far too many get stuck in the "paralysis by analysis" stage, thinking they just don't know enough to get started.

The right agent will have worked with Canadians before, will have lenders set up that can work with Canadians and will have a seamless process for management.Not only can an agent set you up with a GC, property manager, lawyer, insurance broker, inspector and everything else you need, they can analyze deals and put numbers in front of you.Your job as an investor is to vet the vendors they are providing and double check their analysis.  

Thanks,BrettLocal PM here - happy to help identify investment opportunities, provide investment analysis and connect you with contractors, agents, lenders etc etc. kindly let me know and I'll help in any capacity I can.

Don't get stuck in education / analysis paralysis.

I think I have a lot of analysis paralysis.
