Really just don’t want to have to deal with it myself at the moment. 

I have heard it used different ways.I have used a version of gap funding where the hard money lender funds 85% of the flip (purchase + renovation) and the gap funder funds 10% of the deal.

That way whenever you do find a deal you'll already have a list of buyers that are ready to buy and get a deal done. 

Back in 2018, we encountered one of the most unusual title challenges we’ve ever faced while working on a multifamily wholesale deal.

I'm about to a deal with someone who is in foreclosure.

You would then have two loans, one on your home and one on the refi to access the equity on the investment home.Why not just use the refi cash out from your home loan for future deals? 

Owners pay not to deal with problems.

You'll never get your best deal until you understand what the other side is dealing with. 

I work with a lot of househackers and they're typically on the 12 month cycle, rinse and repeat.While the proposition of acquiring an investment property outside of your market in a "landlord friendly" state may sound appealing, i would recommend you stay local for now and househack another couple of properties over the next few years until you've got some more time / experience under your belt.you would need a management company to cover your property that is outside of your market which would not only take 8-10% of your gross it would also leave you a bit vulnerable to a property management company that you A.)know nothing about and B.)you won't have the experience or cashflow or proximity to deal with any headaches that may arise.i would recommend staying local and househacking your way along for now and then maybe hire a local property management company initially to work with your current/local properties to get a taste of what to expect if and when you begin investing outside of your market.
