Making local connections to that area so you can get everything you need set up.

I've got a great supplier/installer here on the Coast.I'm not familiar with the Magee market, but a quick MLS search shows no active rentals on market in town.I've learned the hard way on the BRRRRs, if you go ahead and do everything (within a reasonable budget) Roof, HVAC, windows, kitchen bathrooms, you'll save yourself time/money down the road.Good Luck!

Partnering with Brittney Sciandra provided valuable local insights, making this an attractive and strategic investment for Partner Driven.

I would LOVE any local people to touch base!!!

Check out local meetups as well.  

Our current renter is likely to be renting for 4 years as she has kids at local school and 4 years would see them through to going to college.We have an old detached 1.5 garage that has functional automatic garage door, and just fits their car....not that they do it very often as I think it is a challenge. 

You will need to learn about the local laws, advertise, background check applicants, meet them for showings, answer questions, get a good lease, answer the phone at any time, arrange for repairs, do inspections, manage finances, manage an LLC, and more.

I've used Landlord Tenant Serices which is a local company and they do excellent work.
