I'm wondering what you all think about this question.Would you settle for 5-10% CoC ROI in this high interest rate environment if the asset was located in an appreciating market?

Get out of your comfort zone.

I’d take your time and make sure you are completely comfortable before acting. 

Hi Tomoko,As long as they are an EA, CPA, or attorney that works in the tax field and they have good real estate knowledge I would feel comfortable interviewing them to see if it would be a good fit.

Also, private lenders will be happy to give you funds for small rehabs and that will help you build a portfolio of rehabs so that they feel comfortable to fund larger rehabs for you in the future.We're a private lender, if you have any further questions I'll be more than happy to help you with those.Regards,Jackson

., but I’m curious what your alls thoughts are on how beneficial a financial advisor could be.I’m not interested in having someone actively manage my investments as I’m comfortable with doing all of that.

If you aren't comfortable with that person, find someone else. 

By tv celebs being attached making people feel more comfortable and actually getting lead astray I think we should make them accountable.

Once you feel comfortable then put together a game plan to go out of state to flip or buy and hold with the help of your local family. 

Thank you for helping to foster an excellent investing forum environment!
