There is a meetup called “AIM”, I believe, for Apartment Investor Mastery.

What measures your success?

Canada recently introduced the definition for "Eligible Investor" which aims to disarm any ambiguities on the merit of their investment education. 

That's much more concrete and measurable than learning trust.

Because a 2-4 unit property will serve as a forcing function to drive a multifamily deal with "training wheels," so to speak, before moving into larger multifamily deals (where folks should ultimately aim to focus in their bigger strategy, in my opinion). 

In Wisconsin it is the buyer's responsibility to verify any crucial measurements the agent is not responsible for the accuracy of info provided by the seller. 

I can coordinate CL-100 lettersI can coordiante many repair estimates based off measurements I take during the inspection and provide those to a variety of differnt contractors I deal with, without having to schedule them on-site.My reports come with a repair request tool for agents that really looks good, quick and easy to use In my reports I put into perspective the how severe an item found is or isn’t in attempts to aid in keeping the buyer from freaking out. 

Did they physically measure the property when they came?

Look into which security measures one should take when removing trees.

And since we are learning about construction, being able to go after work and measure cabinets for the 4th time, or compare the tile to the grout, or pick up supplies so your expensive contractor doesn't have to waste his time picking out paint colors, flooring, appliance etc... are all things that are easier to do in person.If you have a lot of experience flipping houses, or working construction,  then yes go for it, you can be successful as a long distance landlord.
