They have more skin in the game then you do.Make sure you get clear title.

Plus it is difficult to build credibility when you don’t have any skin in the game.

Equity - You need to have skin in the game and have ample reserves - it takes 10 properties to be financially free3.

I would only enter into a permanent partnership agreement if you found an experienced investor who brings more to the table than money and has capital (skin) in the game. 

No one has more "skin in the game" than a PMC as they have to deal with the property every day until an owner sells or fires them.Also recommend finding your own Inspector and not one referred by an agent.

ERGO they use folks in the Philippines and other parts of the world to read off of a script.. the difference is they have to pay them by the hour .. so for you no skin off their nose you dont produce does not cost them anything. 

@Jada WalkerFirst, I'd start with attending a Meetup to network with real estate investors.Once you've formed business relationships with them, then I'd reach out and ask if you could do cold calling for them (you don't need money, but you need thick skin) OR driving for dollars with skip tracing.
