Long Distance Real Estate Investing (D. Greene)-- Who's done it?

I just finished the book Long Distance Real Estate Investing by David Greene. I am excited and nervous to get started.

Has anyone else read his book and put the principles to action? What is your experience?

@Patrick Keene I'm sure the book is awesome.  However I've never read it.  I've been investing in the Mid-West from the East Coast for years.  I would not change this strategy for anything in the world.  Here in NY you cannot buy a wet paper  bag for under $375K whereas you get a much bigger bang for your buck.  We are a little under 96 Units within our network of investors.  Best advice I can give you will be to visit the market and vet the team you are building.  I spent 18 months in the market before I started investing in the market.  All the best.  Always remember to persist and you will WIN!!!!
