There are also services that do some of the non physical aspects (Guesty handles customer service and cleaner scheduling for 3%).

I just want to make sure you're not physically putting any money into it.

Comfortable with physical distress?

@Kelly Conrad you missy use a physical address that you can be served at.  

Hi @Ray Li,I would get my feet wet by investing in a deal with a proven Commercial Multifamily lead that would allow you to learn everything from LOI, PSA, financial and physical due diligence (walking through every unit with property inspector and lead) every aspect from start to repositioning, to communicating with PM, lender, vendors etc...

Good Evening Tucson Investors, I have a verbal agreement with a motivated seller for a trailer in Tucson and was wondering if there was someone out there who would want to help put the final touches on this deal, including making a physical visit to the property and getting contracts signed if it ends up being the right deal. 

Not everyone will agree with this recommendation, but I physically go visit the neighborhoods where I invest.  

Unlike direct mail, your prospect doesn't have a physical reminder of your company so you need to have them on an aggressive followup sequence and/or VM blast campaign.

Anyway, another way I think of this.. is that I only invested my own physical cash to the tune of ~$25K (the other 15K was purchasing construction materials on a 0% interest CC which I'll pay back before the 12 month intro period).

When I had concerns he was able to either give me a physical report, i.e. smells, carpet condition etc., or leverage the video feed, i.e. any polarized plugs, better view of the roof, etc.Additionally, all the documents were signed electronically.
