You'll need to do the same in order to be competitive for deals like these.If I am you, I am teaming up with an experienced contractor who will walk the property with you and let you know what it needs in order to make it marketable or build value as you stated.

@Kellen Bradfordit's possible if you have the experience and the team members in place.

I would say gather your team if you haven't and really consider your business model.

One of the best things you can do when you are first starting out is find an experienced investor to team up with to help you get some skin in the game.

It's definitely all about the team you work with.

.* Marketing* Negotiating* Building a Team ( Agents, Attorneys, Contractors, Accountants, Other Investors....)* Farm Areaand so on..

My advice would be to try and team up with other investors to diversify your risk and gain experience through the partnership.

Elance & oDesk are being acquired/rebranded by Upwork...Upwork  also has a recruiting team that can help you find a great freelancer based on your job specifications, budget, required skills, etc.The recruiter will source and invite freelancers who fit the requirements to apply to the job and shortlist the best applicants for you to interview and hire.

Welcome to BP Nicole B. and his team have been able to do. 

Focus on building a team.
