However if you aren't doing mass scale, we definitely suggest letting the contractor handle material purchasing.As long as the client has all of the materials at the jobsite, place them where they go, they are all the correct type/fit and there are all of the misc parts (adapters/special hardware/etc) needed to do the install.

I have yet to see how Anderson handles this now that I have written this HONEST review.

Quote from @Amol Kulkarni: Any individual PM (not associated with companies) who can handle 3 doors in Jax and Citrus Springs, fL I own a lot of properties in Jax and have a management company.

Although it is possible to do everything 100% remote, most people I know who are self managing do come on site for a few days or weeks to meet and sort of interview the team they are building.You will need trusted cleaners, handymen, and also good recs for trades i.e. roof, plumbing, HVAC, etc.If you need home setup in most markets there are designers who will handle the whole set up for you, and I would want to interview them as well.  

Your first year will be a learning experience, you will want to be close to the action, as you may not have the capital to pay someone to handle everything.

Later, you could refinance, pay off the sister’s share, and potentially renovate further to add value.The big questions seem to be how to handle the mortgage so the parents aren’t stuck paying rent and whether setting up a trust or another legal structure makes sense for passing ownership smoothly.

You might try asking other investors in your area how its handled.

As expected, consulting with your CPA and the qualified intermediary (QI) handling the exchange is best advised.
