The other way is to raise capital or partner with someone

I'm not sure I've heard or seen anything going around bigger pockets about a photographer, but I would love to offer my services for anyone in need to help me build that portion of my other side business.Thanks!

Depending on your location in Cincinnati, @George Emmons offers PM services.

Hi Veneka,  I am a licensed General Contractor in Bellevue, WA and we also service the Bay area and Las Vegas, NV. 

Just hire a call center or answering service that routes everything to assigned vendors such as plumbers, hvac tech, etc.

Or, if you leave older capex items in place for now, you'll definitely end up with higher maintenance costs down the line.I'd also like to note, if you buy Turnkey (full service) you shouldn't be paying a 'mark up'.

We are raising funds to help our neighbors anyway possible.

I would not, however, thank them for their services.
