I'm closed less than 2 weeks ago and I've already hired and fired my first contractor. 

I'd like to invest in an out-of-state property (since the ROI is attractive) but since I'm working in my full time job I don't have time (=rat race) to go down to see the property, so I had a creative idea to hire wegolook.com to complete a property report with photos and then to double check on him I would hire a local licensed property inspector to go look at the property and then compare them to see if the information match.

I suggest checking Florida's HOA laws or hiring a real estate Attorney to help you.   

HUD Consultant hired for the project (only if your rehab cost is above 35k) helps you overlook the contractors work.

If you were to buy more than 4 units I would strongly believe that you should hire a property manager with good experience.  

Mistake #1 - I hired a friend as my contractor for my 203k project.

Maybe I can hire a PM to just manage all the tenants...2)  OMI the downstairs unit.  

I hire a civil and pay him to do due diligence for me.VERY CHEAP insruacne

If you plan to manage the property yourself then it is mostly there to keep your cash flow positive in case you decide to hire a property manager in the future.

I would say hiring a servicer for a "friendly" transaction to be too costly.
