I'd call insurance before having any sort of plumber to come do any repairs.

Please do this first:  contact the local Housing Authority office in your market area and obtain the landlord package.

I believe that you don't get returns (failed to deliver) with bulk mailers so you don't know which addresses are bad.That's the simple stuff.My advice is to do various mailings that you or some prepares locally, that go out immediately, using 1st class postage.

Quote from @Fernando NA: Hello everyone,I’m considering purchasing a piece of land near Divide, CO, to build a small off-grid log cabin and list it on Airbnb or similar platforms.For those of you who live in the area or have experience with this, I have a few questions:>Is it possible to list such a property on Airbnb given the local regulations?

I'd start with attending local investor meet ups.

Usually, the confidence comes from more reps (seeing more homes and being more of an asset hunter not a spreadsheet warrior) and going to local meetups so you can meet all the other people nearby who are doing what you can't get yourself to do.

I’m a local agent and investor here in Rochester. 

I haven’t done my first deal yet, but through hiring a local contractor to build my personal residence I had this idea that I don’t hear people talking about.

I think one of my projects will get some local spotlights but wondering what the criteria for is getting OMG category.

Post on local Facebook pages for contractor referrals, go to local REIAs, and ask your potential agents and PMs (even if not using a PM at first...you may at some point).There is only so much that service providers can do and many of them are far from "experts"; so, be prepared to be your own expert at being willing to figure stuff out as you move forward.
