You would likely have to do a ground-up construction for a design you are proposing.

This is good pay for them. 

I am extremely gung-ho to have boots and the ground and gain more knowledge by the day.I am curious, as an agent who has been licensed for a few years, sold a few homes, but is coming back from hiatus, does anyone have any advice on where to begin?

Hi Nicholas we invest in Toledo and have a great team on the ground there that we share would be delighted to assist you if you want to chat

I’m based in Houston, TX, but I know how critical it is to find someone on the ground who’s a true investor ally, not just another agent.

Regardless of your exit strategy better to have  "Boots on Ground" wherever you invest. hope this helps.

See managing on the coast is plausible and there are great cleaners and crews on the ground willing to work hard.

I think a middle ground could be reached there but alas not in my control. 

I mainly was curious about what legal grounds we have in order to proceed, since the PMA doesn’t specifically state “agent won’t grant criminals unsupervised access to your vacant property”, I figured that was just given!

You need boots on the ground to see who lists flips and who lists dumps.
