For context, this would be for a property I already own.I understand this may be a bit unconventional and people will likely recommend I get a proper quote and have the contractor do a full walkthrough.

I'm going to buy my first property within the next couple of months and I'm curious about how people manage their properties when they are not within a driveable distance of them.I understand they have property managers but where do you find them?

Great insurance agent, great realtor, great lender, great attorney, great title people great trades and others.A great realtor can save you time, money, frustrations, headaches, and keep you out of a lot of trouble. 

Well, this my opinion, if you like unpredictability, constant change and people/contractors with no regards to you or your property then "YES" flips and STRs are the way to go...LOL....I love it!!! 

I know people who do this and I do not believe there are issues with it, but speak to an attorney and they should probably notify the company if they are an employee of that company that they are doing this.

I've seen a lot of people ask questions regarding loans on manufactured homes, but I didn't quite find what I was looking for when searching.

It’s a great way to meet people who are actually doing deals and can share what’s working for them.Also, build a solid team.

They probably actually have less debt than most other people, so it is easier for them to make rent payments.The vast majority of bankruptcies are medically related.They have been "through the system" and they don't want to go through that again.

One thing to remember when you are getting into RE investing is to have your team of people or as Brandon Turner from the Bigger Pockets Podcast calls it your CORE 41.

This is a great place to learn and to connect with people so take advantage of all the great resources.
