I love meeting new people and connecting and collaborating on all ideas real estate, and everyone on here is of that same like-mind. 

Most of us utilize technology to collaborate with our clients all over the globe.Going non local will expose you to a wider pool of expertise in real estate.

It'd help to visit the area and meet your Realtor in person to create a stronger relationship and bond if you'll be communicating and purchasing via long-distance most of the time later.Last year, I traveled with family that are relocating from California to Tennessee (I am a broker in Indiana) and met a Realtor in the Tri-city area (Kingsport, Johnson City, and Bristol) to collaborate with, guide us, and show homes over a 4-day trip.

I am from the Chicago suburbs (Illinois) and looking for an investor/mentor, who has experience using creative strategies, to guide and collaborate with. 

I found a few good opportunities in the Elk Valley that I'd be interested in discussing/sharing/collaborating on.

Often posting to forums collaboratively so hopefully we won't confuse people!

You will have to collaborate on a solution that works for all parties and allows you to move forward while letting her and her pets have stable housing that she expects per her lease agreement.

Investors need a safe and collaborative space to network in person; exchanging ideas, contacts, deal flow and strategies.

Once you have that figured out, only then can you (with the assistance of collaborators or partners) estimate the expenses involved. 

Issac, I work with Investors in NJ with different strategies if you ever want a direct lender to collaborate with.
