Personally not a fan of out of state BRRRR.I think it's a recipe for disaster and having been in the game for 10+ years, I've seen the disaster first hand as I bought hundreds of deals from disgruntled out of state investors who thought they can do it themselves.My property management company has doubled in 12 months also due to out of state investors getting caught with a poor property manager when trying to do it themselves from afar so they come to us for help 🤷♂️I'm seeing many investors buying D class crap on the MLS for too much and that needs work.They end up being into the property for 30% more than they would be that if they just bought turnkey.A true turnkey provider will find the cheapest/best deals through a variety of acquisition methods, renovate well and sell for fair market value (And manage in-house).If things go South, they are solely to blame and the penny drops with them.But with DIY, who is to blame?

While the obvious caveat to this is a slightly higher purchase price (if you choose to do so), there are a variety of benefits to this strategy as well, such as:- The idea of getting a Lump Sum Payday (from the bank) AND a steady stream of Passive Income from you as an investor for the downpayment is incentivizing to most. - If the seller is desperate to close (due to health issues, family problems, liens, etc.), they may agree to Seller Finance the small amount in order to ensure the deal makes it to the closing table. - You're minimizing how much is coming out of pocket when closing arrives.
