Hello Investors, Does anyone have a good source for a company or person to hire that can help manage incoming leads, such as checking for motivation, scheduling appointments and things of this nature, 1 first point of contact after a lead comes in from direct mail, website, or cold calling company who has generated a lead?

@Will Proulx the post from @Andrew Postell is exactly to what I was referring to.

Glad you joined the best real estate investing website!

Before actively pursuing deals and talking to brokers you should already have in place a team of professionals (RE Attorney, REI focused CPA, Property Manager, Contractor, etc) that you can refer to as your investment team when talking to them.

@Tyler MartinYou shouldn't feel stress working with a professional - especially if you are paying $$ for the services.If your tax profile includes real estate(buy and hold, fix and flips or wholesaling) you may benefit from interviewing a couple accountant's on this website.

hey guys I know of a great handy man, is very good but also very busy. let him know that I referred him. 

Many web sites for that. 

We work with a realtor on all our flips and by just using the online free websites, our numbers are always in the ballpark of what our realtor is saying the ARV of the property is.

We will be making an effort to develop our website more so that applicants can see what we're looking for and help streamline the communications back and forth, but this is the first time that that need has become apparent.Thank you for your input and advice.

Maybe this isn't universal, but I've heard people refer to Milwaukee as the Portland, Oregon of the midwest.
