Hey @Monish Anand - Long distance real estate investing can for sure be challenging, but also forces you to dial in your systems or fail!

Quote from @Scott Tennell: What creative financing strategies have you found to be the most effective in today's real estate market, especially in terms of working with sellers or investors in challenging conditions?

I can certainly handle the bookings and standard service things, but the challenge right now is finding a cleaner who isn’t so expensive. 

In the years that I've represented primarily BUYERS, I find that there has been challenges navigating transactions where the seller is a For-Sale-By-Owner (FSBO) AND inexperienced in handling a real estate transaction.

Getting anyone on the phone who knows how to take care of even the simplest issue is challenging enough.

So, while Section 8 can be a great program, there are a few challenges for both tenants and landlords to consider.

I am in the Virgin Islands, also challenging to find lenders.  

Challenges?

With those numbers the refi is going to be good on the side of having some equity, the challenge like I mentioned is the Apprasier coming in and giving a number that may not support getting all your money out.

I run two big groups on fb and we have been bombarded by big pocket end buyers so closing big commercial deals 10M+ is not the challenge here.
