Yeap i have helped my OOS/International partners self manage. i can give you insights as the person on the ground

You should always make sure to work with someone boots on the ground who has good relationships with the city so they can make the onboarding process seamless.

The point of my post is that I would love to connect with somebody boots on the ground in Omaha who knows the city well.

I’d also reach out to the Hancock County Planning Department to get a feel for how flexible they might be on replating and rezoning—better to get ahead early.For renovations, if you don’t have boots on the ground yet, ask for referrals through local investor-friendly agents.

Still, if you’ve got someone on the ground who truly knows how to navigate these waters, it’s like being handed a map with all the back roads highlighted.

If I were you, I’d consider chatting with a property management firm active in that area...SlateHouse Group’s name comes up in local investor circles now and then...just to get a sense of what rents are really doing on the ground.

Our thought process, is that we should purchase a property in the villages or very close by as this is a very good middle ground for the said areas above.

Ground up construction, in another state.

The ex-owner had no legal grounds as an unlawful detainer so the eviction went through and they were out.

However, unless the cost of the new borrowing is sufficiently lower than the debt against which the funds are being applied, there is little to be gained and ground could easily be lost.
