Michael,Maybe you could hire two, see how they do, then give All to the one that meets your expectations, is efficient and returns phone calls

You can also check meetup.com or search Facebook for real estate investment groups, clubs, or meetings in your area.

Its not all fun and games like at the meet and greet events.

Most cities have regular real estate meet ups for investors which is often the easiest way to meet local flippers.

Rare do I hear of recommendations but I do hear people asking.I would think in any big city you think about, a visit to a local NARPEM meeting or 2-3 visits would be a great idea. 

Focus on STR-friendly areas like Newburgh or Highland Lakes, and use platforms like AirDNA to assess revenue potential.

I spent a decade in advertising, before founding and running a custom wood shop for another decade, so 'm pretty good at the self-promotion.I agree with you that the more gorilla approach would be most effective and that's actually what i've been doing – calling RE agents in my service area with active listings, introducing myself to property managers and leasing agents...To answer your question, I will have to handle the work myself for 6-12 months to build out the SOPs and field service management systems, but I have a lot of relationships for those looking to "do the work".I'll check out the meet up and would love to grab a cup of coffee, I'll shoot you an email.

For example:Second, under their "About us" link, click on "Management" and you'll see a "Meet the Team" page where there's the following photo/info for this James LaPushner fellow you mentioned (which says he was born in New Zealand):However, if you do a reverse Google image search on this photo, you'll find that it's posted on several other sites, including this one: https://planetaseminarov.ru/people/konstantin-baksht.htmlHere's a photo of him from this page:This page is written in Russian, but if you translate it, it says his name is Konstantin Baksht, he lives in Moscow Russia, and he is the owner and CEO of the international consulting company Baksht Consulting Group. 

I will be participating in the webinar this Saturday to learn about the platform.

The guy was an absolute wizard using zapier and a few other platforms to set up automations, drip campaigns and more.Shooting you a PM!
