As an out of state investor your boots on the ground are the key to your success.

@Tom ServerIf this is a class A or B property, than this can typically be managed long distance as long as you have someone in the area as a boots on the group team that can show up to the property when needed.

I self-manage some properties which are 3000 miles away (boots on ground, no PM).

I would be acting as boots on the ground and the project manager and he'll finance the deal. 

You're going to have boots on the ground people keeping the properties running, leasing agents, property managers, etc., and it's your job to helm the ship... which is almost never an entirely passive activity.If you're looking to leverage another operator's experience/time and collect a check in the mail every month, then passive investing through real estate syndication is the way to go.

Originally posted by @Sherry Byrne:@Theresa Harris this is a free pass for tenants to not pay rent and NEVER have to pay back landlord The solution is to employ "Proper Underwriting" now, and see if they qualify.I have a tenant I'm booting out for other reasons (broke other terms of the rental agreement) but for certain, absolutely, they will claim they can't be evicted because of COVID-19.I am requiring they provide EVERY paycheck stub and every bank statement from Jan 1 2020 (Pre-Covid-19) to today to verify if they have had an interruption from unemployment or reduced hours.

Just the thought alone of not being able to assist people in selling their properties has me shaking in my boots.

Its a pretty neat alternative to your traditional boots on the ground management.So back to your original question about software, there are many websites that exist out there where you can use these platforms as tools, but some of them also come with a virtual assistance team which can also be helpful!  

I don't know what lead them to believe there would be a hot tub there, but they immediately got combative about it. 

Anyone interested to work with us as boots on the ground?
