Lay out that criteria first how often do you want communication between you and your Realtor (multiple times a day or once a day or 2-3 times a week).

Communicate with your landlord in writing and keep copies of those communications as well.  

I'm interested to hear from other Rehabbers on how they communicate their budget to contractors. 

Amazing...she replied, yep she is moving but failed to communicate that to me until I she felt her credit might get hurt.

I've used VAs for a completely different business, and to do so successfully I had to take the time to write very clear instructions.My business relied completely on email and other online communications, so I have no insights on how to manage them for real time or voice related communications, but I will say that I had to tailor my VAs to those parts of the business that could tolerate turnaround times of one working day (the VAs were in Asia), and that focused on routine activities and communications with management rather than with communications with customers or actions that were not covered by established procedures.The Tim Ferris book 4-Hour Workweek turned me on to the idea of VAs, and it took me a while to warm up to the idea.
