I'm so motivated I've setup two monitors and have a pro coming to my home to fine tune my computer to bigger pockets.

Oh and they install cameras around the building which can be monitored remotely independently of the manager just for an added layer of peace of mind. 

She is North East VP of the state association which tracks and monitors bills impacting real estate investors.

I would start researching and monitoring the market of the area you are moving to every day.

Thieves, vandals, squatters, kids, animals, bugs all of this equals damage to the home and no one is there to monitor any of it.

Though it can be helpful to have in-tow, neither a map nor gps will show neighborhood classification, especially with the constant variation per block in the Philadelphia city limits.    

(This is what is holding me back in regards to prospecting for them.)4) I'm a huge prospecter for listings using Circle Prospecting, Farming, and Probates so my plan was to load up the Tax Delinquents into a Dialer and prospecting for either Flips, Rentals, & Listings.5) My goal would be able to monitor my county for properties that fall into the 2+ year Delinquent Group, and be notified them the day of, so that I can call them immediately and see if I can identify an opportunity.Any input would be greatly appreciated.Thank you in advance.

Hey BP, I am a relatively new real estate investor and I was curious as to how you guys monitor market conditions and cycles in your areas.

Make sure you ask for references, and monitor the quality of their work with smaller jobs before trusting them with anything large if possible.

Michael, all good points here by everyone.Make sure you do check out our local meetup, you can meet experienced flippers and maybe people looking for lending too.My only advice is this: as much as you think you know by being behind the monitor, about profits, comps, and estimating repairs by pictures, you will have a rude awakening in the real world with zero flipping experience.
