I text my maintenance guy who also happened to be up as he was a volunteer fireman & in the process of pumping out other homes in the area.

Find a mentor and volunteer to help them for free.

I volunteer at our church. 

I spent 2011-2018 trying to sell Tennessee Volunteers apparel in upper East Tennessee and literally losing all of my shirts in the process.

Here are some of the bullet points that I talked about: •Start with a partner or assistant•You can do it all yourself to start, but quickly find others to hire in order to scale•Hire before you think you’re ready•Hire for the future not the present•Use sub-contractors, volunteers or commission sales•Write down what you do each day to be able to create a machine•Take 30 minutes each day to write tasks and grade 1-10.

Will she volunteer this if you open up the conversation? 

Disclosure, I'm a volunteer, un paid, I like sharing my buy and hold experience with other new folks so they can buy their rentals too. 

I was in Florida & had no idea what to do for her.So at 4am I called a fellow investor (cashed in a favor) who also happened to be a volunteer fireman & they eventually pumped the homes out.

I help manage the volunteers. 

He aggressively looked across lenders, was upfront on what his compensation was and also volunteered to show me the wholesale rate sheet for every loan he originated for me.
