Hi @Roberto Costa - if you're buying a single family investment properties you can get a conventional loan with 15% down, so virtually any lender should be able offer you this.  15% is the minimum down payment for non-owner occupied conventional loans. 

Virtually anything else can be done remotely.

If you do not have enough time to field calls during the day, you may want to hire a virtual assistant to take care of incoming calls on your behalf...

Numbers like that make a property virtually worthless.

I would be buying lots from those that don't want to rebuild up in fountain grove or Silverado wait a year or two then build some spec homes.. probably easily 2X to 3X your cash.. in 36 months or less.you could join me in my development in Rohnert Park right next to the Graton Casino... 45 minute drive to view your investment LOL... we are not suppose to advertise on BP but since the guys above me talked about their deals I thought I would throw a few out.. also Performing first trust deeds are solid for the passive investor... 8 to 12% is possible you can do that with some crowd funders and local hardmoney lenders.. we have a 9% 5 year product that gives you consistent return with out having to get paid off and find that new deal all the time.

I am wondering how Holyoke’s housing market could react to this huge casino right nearby.

They used virtual assistants to handle customer relations.

I will have to check out Scott Carson’s virtual programs.

As a starter in this, my initial concern, especially since I'm working it virtually, is that I'm able to find deals without going deep into my pocket.

The price of labor here in Connecticut is high as it is in a lot of other states so doing the work ourselves was our competitive advantage when we started.Although things went slower, we gained a lot of knowledge of how to and what it costs to do virtually everything involved with rehabbing homes.
