Too undiversified for me though.Another alternative is to sell some of the physical properties and purchase an equal amount of a RE mutual fund to allow you to rebalance your real estate portfolio with non-real estate investments more easily and frequently in the future.

What questions do I ask to make sure they can get the job done without me being physically present for months on end?

Louis-based companies but I would love to know more about their physical presence in St.

One of our first attempts was to incorporate detailed inspection assessments prior to listing our homes for rent.

i personally use my regular phone but you could use a google voice number or an actual physical work phone with a different line. i'd do google voice so you're not carrying around 2 phones. :)

For anyone on here who is a local investor, what are some highlights I can incorporate to be more persuasive and help prospective investors to overcome their "fear" of investing in Detroit? 

Someone needs to make a solution that incorporates everything we need as managers (or self owned mangement) and I bet they can make a lot of money.

They were using the mailing address to pretend they had physical presence as is required by the state.

Although it's fun to talk about how far away some clients are, it's noteworthy that about half our portfolio are local people that can physically walk into the office, and i think that says something!

Talk to your CPA / accountant but if you are in texas and buying in texas, they incorporate in texas.3.
