.- Generally the same logic applies as above.  

I'm in Milwaukee and I have heard of a lot of bad stories involving this type of scenario...mostly involving out of state investors.

Also, consider this copy & paste advice below:Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a Class A property in Class D area, what quality of tenant will you get?

I taught myself Spanish, I already know the construction crews in the area, the realtors, the communities, the land, I have someone managing the property, I have a maintenance crew… I already did an incredible amount of the work involved in finding a deal and turning it around through reconstruction and proper management.

I was going through the rent control laws ( I know, should have done that before purchasing the property ), and a section stands out. https://ecode360.com/30526708#42037155Based on what I can read, the rent control chapter doesn't apply to: Dwellings of three and four units, at least one of which is occupied by one or more of the owners thereof.My understanding is that rent control doesn't apply to owner-occupied multi-units. 

You will need to find partners, you will need to travel to where you wish to invest, you will need to understand the ins and outs of the business by being actively involved and treating it like a business and not some super passive investment.If you don't want to do that work I suggest you just put that 200k into some sort of diversified mutual fund that can make you 10+% on your money without any of the work of real estate.At the end of the day this is just my advice and I'm only a stranger on the internet.

Is there some other way to verify his involvement?
