remote flipping- how do you go about?

[Account Closed]

Hello BP! As some of you have read my post I am interested in buy and hold properties in the midwest- Cleveland, Dayton, Milwaukee and Indianapolis. I would like to raise more capital beforehand in order to build a cushion so that any big expense won't wipe me out. I want to know from those of you who are flipping out of state in the cities I mentioned. How did you assemble a team? How do you know who to trust (which is probably my biggest fear)? Any and all help is appreciated and I am also open to partnerships. Thanks again BP!
