I’m looking for advice on how I can effectively start laying the groundwork while still being remote.Specifically, I’d love insights on:Building relationships and networking in the Raleigh market from a distanceMarketing myself and generating leads remotelyAny tech or tools that might help me stay connected to the local marketAny tips for handling deals or managing communication with clients remotelyI’m eager to hit the ground running when I move, and any advice from those who’ve been in similar situations would be greatly appreciated!

Great your paying off the properties but you have to wait 7+ years to get the money back I have a issue with the numbers here?

Ya I pretty much wanted to lay down and give up.

I was excited when i first saw the properties and have been waiting in the wings ever since hoping it wouldn’t go through as I can’t find anything else quite like it and the aim is I will be living in 1 and house hacking.

Should I be laying out all my financials right then and there? 

What are you waiting for?

With Showings, and mortgage applications at all time low's I would price the property below market on your rent, find a great tenant, and wait 1 more year to sell. 

Risk capital is provided by people on the GP team, so you'll need to make prospective partners aware of your need for risk capital if you're unable to lay it out yourself.1. 

I found it odd that she waited that amount of time for an emergency type of situation @Gabe R.

I found there are more things to take care (management, interest, understand tree, high land price and long waiting time) but I might check into some REITs to diversify my portfolio.
