On paper, our municipality looks more dangerous, but if you spent 10 minutes on the ground you would realize the reverse is true.Some parts of the country basically have a "catch and release" program for criminal behavior. 

Hello, I am a fix and flip investor for the past 3 years and I am about to start my first ground up build. 

I would be happy to give my boots on the ground experience if you want to connect shoot me a message. 

First it's a very old house (1893) and some of the outlets aren't grounded correctly.

I will be his local boots on the ground and my management company will do all the management (a bank turned him down because he doesn't have any investing or management experience in the USA, even though I will be the local manager). 

3@Jay Hinrichs 100%.... a few years ago I did a JV on a ground up condo project.

@Myrtle Mike Thompson hit in on the head.we did around 145k in our two beach houses this year but we bought two 4/4's for $570k that are worth around 1.2mm right now and used mostly cash, leverage of around 200k from a portfolio- total on them.deals are out there but in my opinion you need a good realtor for boots on the ground and insert yourself into the market your looking to buy.

They boast a robust portfolio management suite with some fancy bells and whistles, but they're using independent third party contractors to scale on the ground.

Rooftop deck has built in BBQ, fire pit, surround sound, & an above ground spa!

For the last 6 months I have been running my own deals to ground and have come close on a few larger multifamily deals (killed by the rate environment).
