We manage 7 remotely in different cities with an 8th in progress.....we made a ton of little mistakes early on.....it helps a ton being tech savvy....setting up ring camera, water leak monitor, pms, emails workflows, etc.I have a book half written on remote managing properties 7 properties on less than 15 mins a day.

A consultant will:Help the landowner develop a forest management plan.Plan the pre-harvest.Determine a selling method.Establish a written contract between the landowner and the buyer and/or logger.Help the landowner execute the sale and harvest.Will monitor the harvest operations of the buyer and/or logger.Closeout the harvest with the buyer and/or logger.I can give more specifics about actions 1 through 7 if you'd like.

Like I said, I just got started with a city in Orange County and I will be monitoring it to see how it goes. 

And who the hell wants to have to constantly monitor the unit and shut the AC on/off with the WIFI every time they leave?

Or there are some good Submetering systems out there that can be installed and monitored after the original meter on the plumbing.

I do not monitor them being onsite but I do monitor the progress . . . if things are off the timeline, we have a discussion but will address time on site. 

Your obvious options:1) Find your own handyman you can trust and somehow monitor remotely--Expect to be screwed by many to find one you can really trust2) Hire a great Property Management Company, which you will still need to monitor remotely.

I do monitor Fairbanks but haven't done much with it because it's almost 400 miles away.

I am interested in how to vet/evaluate syndication opportunities. For this question, I'm interested in Grant Cardone.  I have been studying him for the last month...

Someone I was talking to, pointed to this ^...

@Hilary GravesI do this if it suits me at the time.As I monitor the work done in a vacant property, I sometimes get the stragglers just looking.Usually I make the time, as this could be the renter I will be leasing to for the next 3 to 5 years.
