I'm not familiar with how European real estate transactions work but personally know I would feel a lot better if there was a third party involved holding the money

Investment Info:Single-family residence fix & flip investment.

I as Real Estate Broker am going to take on more liability, more work, more efforts, more hassles, and that comes with a price tag.     

@Ashish Wa we work with a lot of real estate investors that provide us with intel on who the best property managers are.

I see how it could bring more people, but also couldn’t it have a flip side to that too? 

Nobody knows.It's a real and nervy question.

Only loan that would cover your rehab is an FHA 203K (primary residence loan) OR hard money fix and flip loan and you would have to refinance later.

It seems like there is a very strong real estate market out there. 

I'm a Real Estate Broker based in Grand Rapids and cover the West Michigan market.  

Also rental rates are dropping, and we are already seeing rental loan rates in the 5% range, I would expect to see rental rates under 5% by January.If you are going to be a real estate investor for the long term, why don't have your Real Estate License?
