I’ve discussed the process with a realtor who has offered to help facilitate the process.

The payments are facilitated by a turn key company here in Indianapolis and they've provided everything we've asked for. 

e.g. could putting in a lawn where cement was facilitate future repairs and add value?

We rent nice homes and usually will facilitate these requests (if reasonable), but involve the tenant in some capacity. 

This also reduces the ongoing fees to the custodian, but will come with a larger setup fee to a facilitator, a company that forms these special LLCs and drafts the accompanying paperwork.

I'm a realtor and general handyman in San Antonio seeking a full-time commitment to work alongside - and add value to - a real estate investor or firm who has exhibited a fair amount of success with house flipping and/or operating rental property in the San Antonio metropolitan area.Expected DutiesDaily MLS search to maintain a pipeline of new and upcoming projects.Attending Real Estate Owned/Foreclosure auctions as an agent for the employer.Financial underwriting and rehab estimation.Brokering the purchase of deals.Filing construction permits with Bexar County and the City of San Antonio.Contractor scheduling and management for property rehab/rebuilding projects.Listing and marketing of property for rent, seller-financing, or cash sale.Qualifying tenants and facilitate their moving in and out.Maintaining and improving rental properties in accordance with company objectives.Personal maintenance and handywork of Rentals.

I’m trying to figure out how to facilitate this.

In OR, doing it isn't legal for one main reason:Expecting a fee in facilitating a RE sale without an appropriate license.Then the whole assignment to someone that doesn't exist when the seller signs is problematic.Might be better to get brokerage license (I'm sure LA has a REA with requirements) and sell RE legitimately.OOC - I used to be an EE long time ago, but my friend's kids are having a hard time also.  

You may have to invest off the beaten path and may have to do a little(or a lot in some cases) rehabbing to achieve this but having a strong team in place really helps to facilitate your goals.

BRRRRing is a great strategy and you can facilitate great returns in lower risk areas of the market here since you're newer to this.
