Even if you have an excellent team built with plenty of trust, it's really difficult to do this without having lots of face time and rapport building. 

@Mark HafnerI've been investing internationally for many years but it's very difficult to answer the kind of questions you ask without writing a dissertation so I'd encourage you to ask more precise questions in the forum.

Plus, other routine tasks like transferring loans and providing payoffs were way more difficult with them than it should have been.

But I'm getting a pass because the IRS does not verify and does not even ask.Don has a more difficult time with his auditor because he does not have Form 1098, and he does not want to show a form with my name on it, for obvious reasons.

As a negative, it also has the largest gap between the cost to buy versus the cost to rent, making cash flow extremely difficult without committing more equity up front.

The reality of real estate is just much more difficult and nuanced than it seems on a spreadsheet. 

The environment now with higher interest rates and higher purchase price does make it more difficult but definitely doable. 

It's difficult to understand your question.

When foreclosures dried up, we went after short sales and when those dried up we started to focus on properties with mold or foundation issues and learned how to fix those and when that started to become too difficult and the rehab was not worth it anymore I had to pivot again and we buy properties in good shape that fell through with another buyer.

Very difficult to see in the pictures what has been built in a month.
