Hello BiggerPockets Community,My name is Shawn Himes, and I am excited to join this vibrant network of real estate professionals.

Hopefully they do or your personal insurance covers them.

I have been to a few of them personally its really something and the folks that own them are under the radar and make MILLIONS.

I know of several excellent property managers in the North Alabama area that would service the Harvest area, including several that I've never worked with personally, but have a good rep in the area. 

I have a lot of personal experience with BRRRR—both from building my own rental portfolio here in Memphis, TN and from helping both local and out-of-state investors successfully scale their portfolios using this strategy.One of the biggest advantages I’ve been able to offer my clients is structuring deals with hard money lenders in a way that allows them to acquire properties with less than $10,000 out of pocket in most cases which results them in massive cash on cash returns!

I would build a relationship with the person before you decide to partner.

The easiest way to find and connect with wholesalers is either bigger pockets or by googling "sell my house fast in (town name)" although that may cost them a click for google ads.

Quote from @Leonard La Rocca III: So is it common to find a conventional loan without meeting the lender in-person?

You can establish a personal LLC and use it to buy a business.

To answer your question directly: a person should apply (whatever that means in your process) before being asked to screen.
