That being said, you should start building a team of contractors, plumbers, electricians, etc.

I had a property in a small town  close to a metropolis but for the longest time I couldn't find reliable service providers like plumber electrician etc.. they would be bigger companies that are backed up with work for weeks.. until finally i found 2 to jack of all trades contractor..Also you may run into issues with vacancy..At the end of the day you need to build your team ahead of time before you dive in

Will not buy property sight unseen but also realize there are investment properties outside my home state (CA).Being an out of state investor, it's difficult to put together a team (contractor, plumber, electrician, agent, etc) to help evaluate properties in a state I've only visited but see opportunities for investment properties?

I am a licensed electrician in Ky.

An electrician can do load calcs for you or you may be able to find something online.

Sales has nothing to do with it, it's based on payroll, if one of my guys income 50k a year and he works as an electrician the whole year, then I owe 6k for WC.

I'm building my team and have a realtor who specializes in distressed properties, electrician, plumber, hvac, roofer, and hardwood refinisher.

Also looking for some plumbers, electricians, hvac contractors as well.

I would suggest finding a dependable plumber and electrician.

Appreciate any referrals for contractors (plumbers, electricians, HVAC, handymen (especially handymen) and even general contractors, tile, etc.) in the Polk County, FL. area, primarily in Lakeland.
