I'm particularly passionate about growing quickly from SFRs into Multi-family and currently developing tools to source and assess deals.Outside of real estate, I enjoy long-form conversations with brilliant people, or at least watching them when there aren't other people around to converse with.

Personally I have not had the best experiences with these sites, I typically go via word of mouth referrals from other investors I know from in-person networking in my market, or from the BiggerPockets referral tools.

Be sure to check out the free tools BP provides to help analyze deals you may have and also market insights.

I love that there is a forum that offers so many tools to do research and a community of people that just want to succeed in the same way.

Now, they take the offer more seriously.You waiting can also have the opposite effect.

When it comes to construction remotely, the challenege is how to verify and validate effectively of what the deliverable should be.

You’re effectively acting as the bank, so it’s crucial to vet your buyer thoroughly and possibly require a solid down payment.

BP has various tools to help you analyze your deals (rentals, flips, wholesale, etc). : https://www.biggerpockets.com/investment-calculators7.

I can only see the benefit of forming a self performing property management company if you believe you can be more effective on cost and service than the local 3rd property operators and even cost can be tricky to calculate because most focus on the management fee that's charged rather than the cost to put out fires when they do arise.

Which is more beneficial and cost effective.
