So here's Tip#1:- Hire a good real estate attorney first- Once you've signed the LOI and starting on the contract negotiaitions, ask for any and all restrictions etc.

I'd suggest hiring a professional or really digging into this yourself.My background: over 8 years in environmental consulting (13-present), 6-7 yrs doing floodplain development permitting across the country for telecommunications, commercial real estate, and oil & gas.

It just sounds like you are hired help in this structure, no offense because everyone is important.

Where would I find a telemarketer with some real estate experience (I need to hire one)?

@Kyle Madden with $300K, you might want to consider MF and hire out the Property Management which is an expense line.

My PM just hired a contractor to make these repairs and sent me an invoice that simply says "Upgrades City and HI punch list completions”.

I am considering working with a MENTOR to help me with Wholesaling; does anyone have any advice on what I should expectas well as what type of questions I should ask prior to hiring them.  

Not sure I feel to confident with this at first glance.I'd recommend paying yourself if you're self managing as it's time/energy and (i'm assuming) at some point in the future, you'll hire a PM?

The PMC you hire will have to deal with whatever you buy until you sell it or you part ways.

I know people who hire AAs from overseas to just sit at  computers searching for that one OK deal.
