I recently purchased a burnt building and I'm eager to rehab it.

I realize I am not cut out for the entire REI process of consistently finding multiple properties for particular exit strategies. 

So, the question is not whether to invest remotely, but where to invest.Investment TeamRegarding properties in distant cities: While books, podcasts, seminars, and websites offer general knowledge, you'll ultimately purchase a specific property in a specific location—each with its own unique conditions.

In genral they are not patient enough to delay purchasing shiny things.

The ONLY reasonable deals are:Appliances when purchased if you have a retailer that offers unlimited repairs/replacement for 5 years for 10% of price.

Are you purchasing a fix and flip property and looking for a hard money loan?

These are great questions and a great idea to do some due diligence before the purchase.
