Spend time driving for dollars in Tacoma neighborhoods to identify distressed properties.

@Nick D.I'd start with identifying what your buy box is for your next property and what you are going to need for a purchase.

I identify a property that is under market value that after it is fixed up, it has between $40,000 to $50,000 worth of equity.  3.

Therefore, unlikely to be a guru...or even worthy mentor of any. 2) Don't quote, but within the first 10 seconds or 1 minute of the webinar I could have sworn him say he only has or has "only" made $1.2Million of his own money. 3) If since he as a wholesaler (one of his dozen professed niches) has all this software, which can identify motivated sellers, has a network of buyers, has so many structures and systems in place, then what in the world would he need us for.

The more properties you walk and the more industry conversations you have, the better you’ll get at identifying these opportunities.

If you don't/won't have WiFi then you should either consider a SimpliSafe system that you can move around from house to house, or some type of Trail cameras like hunters use for identifying game areas.

Travel costs to look at other properties.If you travel but have not identified the property that you want to buy yet, the cost is considered an investigating cost.

A lot of it has to do with location and time.If they are local owners looking at 1-2 LTR properties, I'll assist with identifying cash flowing/near cash flowing properties, assist them in the purchase as their buyers agent and assist with tenant procurement, listing, etc. but they can typically handle day to day management from there.Furnished properties, whether that be MTR or STR, are a lot more involved, as I'm sure you're aware of!

Hey Deirdre,To address your questions:Providing freedom by handling day-to-day operations.Offering peace of mind through proactive maintenance and tenant communication.Reducing risks by staying ahead of legal requirements, tenant screening, and dispute resolution.Enhancing the bottom line by identifying cost-saving opportunities while ensuring tenant satisfaction to reduce turnover.Is the experience still important when the property thrives financially?

I have not selected a specific property yet, but want to at least identify my potential investors.
