I am not planning on driving the routes - would need to have a manager & dispatcher while having trucks and drivers actually drive the routes and deliver packages.The businesses seem to be quite strong cash-flow-wise but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to get into this business.Would appreciate any feedback on this.Thanks.

In today's world, unless you are looking for a job to manage the investment, there is no reason not to look to a state that is more landlord friendly.  

Of course, there are construction considerations building on concrete, but nothing that can't be managed.

Hello BP Family,I've managed my own properties for over a decade and I'm looking to start a property management business where I manage other investor's rental properties. 

Obviously, you are planning on doing your own property management once you purchase your first rental. 

The key is to find a good fleet manager at a dealership in your area.

I own a couple Chicago MF that he did gut-rehabs on and his team still manages them for me.

Are you using a local property management company?

It is certainly more challenging to investing actively when you don't live in the market but if you have an investor friendly agent that has experience and connections to contractors, property management etc then it helps reduce that risk.

We will self-manage from a distance.Thanks!
