I've a tenant moving out within the next few days and have a General Inspector lined up and also need to have contractors come in and give us bids for rehab, my question is for out of state investors: How do you stay on top of/manage projects being done without your supervision? 

Sellers willing to come down on price based on contractors’ estimates (somewhere around 30-50k)— waiting to see what price sellers will come down to.

I live and work with my husband as a contractor in the Northern Virginia area. 

Secondly, you should walk the property with a contractor and get a bid.

Agents, realtors, attorneys, contractors, landlords EVERYONE.

Any recommandation for contractor(s) in Columbus, Ohio? 

I would have to hire the fix up to a contractor who is probably competing for the same property.

I have a ton of construction experience and contractor management experience for multi-million dollar projects if that counts for anything (My W2 job is a project manager for a huge general contractor).Does anyone have a piece of advice for me regarding funding my first flip?

The downside, of course, is that the VA loan has a few more restrictions which can limit properties you can purchase which require more renovation for a lower price.Aside from the agent and lawyer, I would advise having a solid home inspector, CPA, contractors (general, painter, plumbing, electric etc.) on your team. 

I am a general contractor in Syracuse, NY.
