@Alex Stoll I deal almost exclusively with out of state owners and must say that you're absolutely right in saying that management is key.

@Justin Klepfer I am NOT an attorney but I deal with the eviction process almost daily and even though the eviction process is fairly simple in my area I would NEVER act as my own attorney in the eviction.

Good afternoon everyone, As an Out of State/ Long Distance investor, what services would you ideally like to have performed on your behalf?

If that were the case the property was likely neither a ideal flip or ideal hold investment.

Your properties should ideally pay for themselves with some positive cash flow.  

Ideally, you do this at a bank to take out a typical investment property mortgage because they have better rates and terms than a hard money lender, which saves you money.

You need to talk to your professional to if this strategy is ideal for you. 

I deal with mainly higher end units which get phenominal cash flow, but the problem is there isn't a lot of good comparable data.

Property is ideally located for tourism, walking distance to historic sites, a large park, several museums, public transit, and walkable to the downtown business district.Thanks!

Seller will carry the note so ideally I buy it, build duplex, refinance after a year or two, pay the seller off, and then have a beach house that can rent for under $500,000 in SoCal.
