See if any of them have the skills and are looking for a part-time job.

Let's just say this would no be a good time to quit your day job and go real estate investing full time.

This is causing a huge influx of people moving here for jobs.

Otherwise, look at side jobs you can do to earn extra money. 

Great job!!

They're a company so they need to make a profit and it's good to give your PM some autonomy to do the smaller jobs as to not bother you everytime work needs to be done. 

However, all non-government jobs have a finite lifespan.

What if they just started their job last week?

Definitely the way to go on rental properties if you are an out of state investor NOT looking for an enormous undertaking with a BRRRR type scenario or investment of that nature or part time or full time job.

@Stuart Udis Its pretty much the norm , I generally do smaller jobs $100K to $250k .
