I gambled on the cheap solution and lost.

I think once you find a team that you trust and have done your due diligence on in Phoenix, then you can leverage their experiences to find the right buildings in the right neighborhood for you. 

Account ClosedHi LukeI can refer you to our cost seg team member.  

Long distance investing seems a little intimidating at first, but I think by developing the right team, and with family close by, I'll be able to make it a success.I'd love to chat with anyone in the area and connect with the community.

As @David Greene mentions get Rock Stars on your team and give them their swim lanes!  

(which he did not)  She is having a good look around so I ask if she is hard of hearing and tell her she left the place in a disgusting state after she was trusted to rent with animals and that I really didn't want her in there.15 mins later, I follow her out back, behind the property and she is now on the god damn roof (stable block with is unsupported and poss rotten) as she needs to get her wind chimes she left.I ask her to get down as that would be my liability and (also ask if she is a grown woman or a child so lost my cool a little) agree to climb out the window to get the darn wind chimes.

My team helps 30+ people a year househack in both Austin and Minneapolis - Saint Paul.

If they decide to look as a result of the increase and find a better deal, I've lost even more money and time, not to mention added a lot more hassle to my life trying to turn the property again...

For example, saying on your CTA (call to action) "sign up now to speak with a team representative" would not be the best.

Team, Here is a scenario.
