Yes there are boots on the ground that manage properties out of state.

Although my boots on the ground met them and he thinks they'll make great tenants.So yes, it sucks that the seller is not giving you what you need but look at the investment you will have!

The first thing you need to do is assess your risk factor threshold.. that’s holds true in any investing though ..But it may be extended a bit if you are looking at a substantial larger return  on investment by investing in out of state or out of the area ..I would say the next thing is to find a boots on the ground person that can look after your interests and hopefully knows at the very least a little bit about real estate , construction .. ect ..I’d prefer if they knew a lot though about what it takes to successfully invest in a property as a buy and hold or even as a flip. 

This gives you idea which parts of the city are better or worse.Using a real estate agent or other boots on the ground is also important.

if anyone needs some boots on the ground to go look at things or take pictures of progress etc.

Simple, throw them out, lock it up, and make sure your boots on the ground make them understand to never come back.

@Trent Chance I've heard of the boot camp and I plan on looking into it.

Once they heard that I don't already own a park or thought I was a "boot camper" I got the run around.

Raising the Fed Funds rate to combat inflation caused by a massive increase in currency in circulation chasing less resources is actually inflaming the issue.

My friend's brother is an agent with Keller Williams in Columbus and does some active investing with her as well, so having boots on the ground in that area appears to be going in the right direction.
