Once you have a few candidates, ask about their experience with out-of-state clients, their knowledge of local rental markets, and any contractor or property management connections they might have.

Hello @Andrew ReedThank you for your patience, it’s high season down here in Tulum and I have several clients in town, just had a moment to reply back.

Not sure what suburbs you are referring to, but I have a lot of clients that are very successful investing in areas like McHenry, Woodstock, Elgin, Antioch, Mundelein, Belvedere, etc. 

We've got many clients that buy them as pure rentals also. - The FHA 203(k) loan is a great way to buy a MFR as it allows repairs to be included in the purchase mortgage.

I honestly don’t know what it would accomplish to have a random contractor walk through a property I wasn’t interested in buying to give me an estimate for a rehab on a project I never intend on doing.

It could also mean that you are opening the door to a lot of complaints in the future.If you do not fix it and then there is strained relations with the tenant it is the way to start a business relationship with your client.

As your portfolio grows, an LLC can streamline management and enhance liability protection.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

I've shared with my clients and the investors in my network and happy to shoot over via email if helpful!  

They may not take on new clients in the first quarter of busy season.  

Quote from @Chris Seveney: Disclosure: Yes I am a private lender but we do not provide this type of financing so I wanted to #ASKI have a client who has around $5M in real estate that has properties in GA, FL, NV and texas.
