My vision is that this would be a relationship where we hold each other accountable, discuss goals and action we have or will take, take action together, and both grow substantially faster than we would alone.

Just have a conversation with the owner, build a relationship.

I am 15 years younger than her and have somewhat assumed an apprenticeship role in the relationship.

Also the fact that your property is vacant currently and for renovation is another hurdle for some banks and insurances.But continue to search and you’ll find some.That is one of the reason that my companies have multiple bank accounts with many local credit union to build a relationship with them as they are more encline to help me with these exotic loans.

I have helped a few people so far (Uk and Canada), non-citizens and have learned that the issue is not really the TK provider - at least not when it comes to the investment.The issues foreigners are facing are mainly in the area of financing (to take full advantage of the leverage and currently low-interest rates), corporate structure, as well as some TK provider behavior.On the financing and corporate structure, I was able to develop relationships I make available to my mentoring clients so we can overcome these hurdles, even though it takes some time and effort.On the TK behavior, it is harder because we all don't have much influence.

I started out with flipmoredeals.com not crazy expensive and I landed my first deal 3 months into program (I was completely new to the industry) That was 5 years ago and still have a great relationship with them

I would only do this with a new PM relationship, just to check up and make sure they organized.

I plan to use the same agent's company to manage the duplex so I was hoping with the closure of this deal, it will be the beginning of a relationship....  

Or if you have a relationship with a Property Manager I would recommend asking them. 

I would focus more on building relationships with other agents and helping them solve their problems.
