Since you plan to travel often, focusing on systems and building a reliable team: agent, lender, property manager, and contractor. 

Hey There @Dominic Campelo - I am also a fellow General Contractor here in Chicago!  

Real estate agents, property managers, and contractors who specialize in your target market can save you time and money in the long run.

If you can, bring a contractor or inspector when you check it out to get a clearer idea of what you’d be dealing with.It sounds like you’re doing your homework, which is key!
