I’m here to expand my network, connect with investors, hard money lenders, and fellow professionals, and collaborate on value-driven real estate opportunities.

Readers should seek professional advice.

Hi Michael,Welcome to the community- There are a lot of good professionals and resources here on bigger pockets to learn and grow. 

If your going to be diligent and actually find a professional (which will be difficult) then it could more than pay for itself to hire someone.
