Hi Fili, Are you just looking to find a boots on the ground person for property management? 

So although I haven’t thrown that plan out- I have a few thousand saved and I need to get my feet on the ground running because I have been studying, reading, researching, listening to podcasts and devising different investing strategies since April 2018! 

We've had no shortage of interest in renting our Washington Park property, though the person we selected ghosted us at the lease signing phase, so we've gone back to our waitlist. 

The biggest issue for dealing with OOS investing is the technology; make sure you research your boots-on-the-ground company to ensure they have paired with the right technology that will allow for easy communication and quick access to updates on your project, especially if you plan on not being on-site regularly.Make sure the "connections" you make with other GC's or REI professionals, that they are licensed and insured and can provide references for their work.Join local groups on other social media platforms and start discovering the midwest market virtually by hearing what others are saying/recommending and what areas people are investing in and with what REI strategy.Indianapolis is a great market to get into right now because you absolutely can stretch east/west coast dollars further.

And remember you don't want to go this route if the crawlspace floods, if you can't get it off the ground. 

I would love to be your "boots on the ground" type person.

Hi there, we do this all the time for our clients, would be no issue to assist you with what you need on the ground. 

Remember a good appraiser should not be looking at what the lowest or highest bidder may pay for your home, but rather a middle ground. 

I don't see many people who even think of going this route and sacrificing to get your REI dreams off the ground.

Any utilities or grounds maintenance that the landlord pays.
