If you are doing 90% of the work yourself, you are getting hands on experience that you'll need to estimate and outsource, but that takes time.

If I did decide to invest in PPC (which I am vaguely familiar with because I used to sell it) am I able to outsource the campaign via a V.A.? 

I own three properties total and have hence just entered a new phase of real estate investment.At the moment I'm trying to develop more fine-tuned business acumen so that I can create greater cash flow and outsource more of the hands-on work.  

Where can I find an excellent Virtual assistant who speaks English, and or referred outsourcing companies?

However, the duplex is in my home town and I am currently Active Duty Military overseas so I will be outsourcing the work.  

That said, here's my list of to do's between now and 1/11/16:Mailers to my list of FSBO's & my Probate Leads (doing these myself just to get the experience and then I plan on outsourcing this work)Work on setting up my websiteContinue to feed my mind with the great information being shared by folks like you on BP.Thanks once again for the warm welcome, and a special thanks to David J Dachtera for his honesty.

I have begun hiring out some of the paperwork tasks, such as mailing monthly invoices, but at our small scale there is only so much that can be outsourced short of hiring a property management company.

Your costs will certainly go up in the short term but unless you want to be a full time handyman and landlord I would lean towards outsourcing some of the tasks that could free you up to find more deals.
