I understand that deals need to be made and not easily found, I would implement that same strategies from long distance real estate investing if I was buying properties in Logan, UT because an overall 4 hour commute isn't a good buisness model if you're going to DIY landlording. 

I have seen some investors create great LLCs just by going DIY, but I have also seen many investors spend their time/money on a useless entity because it wasn't formed correctly or operated by it's terms. 

@Harpreet SinghIf you are trying to have IRA owned LLC then this is not a DIY thing.

Many OOS investors set themselves up for failure because they don't truly take the time to understand:1) The Class of the NEIGHBORHOOD they are buying in - which is relative to the overall area.2) The Class of the PROPERTY they are buying - which is relative to the overall area.3) The Class of the TENANT POOL the Neighborhood & Property will attract - which is relative to the overall area.4) The Class of the CONTRACTORS that will work on their Property, given the Neighborhood location - which is relative to the overall area.5) The Class of the PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANIES (PMC) that will manage their Property, given the Neighborhood location and the Tenants it will attract - which is relative to the overall area.6) That a Class X NEIGHBORHOOD will have mostly Class X PROPERTIES, which will only attract Class X TENANTS, CONTRACTORS AND PMCs and deliver Class X RESULTS.7) That OOS property Class rankings are often different than the Class ranking of the local market they live.8) Class A is relatively easy to manage, can even be DIY remote managed from another state.

Eventually sold for decent profit - with which I built a kit log home near a ski mountain in Vermont and rented that out by the week.

Definitely not a bad choice with Cozy, but certainly other options out there that are probably better suited for what you're trying to accomplish as an independent DIY rental owner.

These buyers don't need to make a profit on their rehab and Cache Valley is DIY central.If you are intent on finding something here, you need to work your network or get out and pound the pavement. 

Love DIY, love improving communities!

Over the past two years, we've done some serious DIY renovation and landscaping work on my fiancee's family home which was a tremendous learning ground for rehab and overall construction skills.

I've been lurking around trying to gather info regarding building single family homes on my lots and flipping them.Hopefully I can get more information on DIY home kits, contractors, and construction loans.This will be an experience!!!
