I'm committed to take time each week to engage with like minded investors.  

Once you know what to look for then yes, you no longer need to hire that out, and only engage specialists when needed for inspections outside of your scope of knowledge.

Joint ventures are generally pretty easy to customize by project and are more suitable for engaging other active partners that add partner-level value.

Having a custodian also does not mean that client will be protected from engaging in a 'prohibited transaction'.

However, good swag into commercial Zach definitely there's great returns but I when you say SFR is tough - do you mean tough due to finding the inventory to locate a good deal or tough in the sense that there might be another wholesaler already engaged in the transaction?

Search here for blogs and posts related to that topic, purchase books about that investing type and begin to further narrow your niche.  4) Once you know enough to be dangerous, start engaging in BP forums.  

@Eric Thomas,You might do better to learn how to attract and engage private lenders.

Stay engaged!

Everything from:(1) contract a property manager, (2) analyze lenders apples-to-apples, (3) engage your contractor (and I've even included a document for your contractor to use to provide you itemized bids on work - no more guessing what you are paying for), (4) a lease agreement, (5) a "checklist" of business incorporation items to launch your real estate LLC and (7) even a BRRRR deal analysis spreadsheet so you can know right away if you'll be making a great deal.These legal docs are enforceable in all States.

Willingness to engage in discussion helps us all in the end.
