Learning to BRRR Long Distance

[Kelly Iacovelli]

I'm looking for a mentor to help me get started in long distance buying of multi-family properties using the BRRR method. I do flips and rehabs locally, am a Real Estate Broker. I'm also looking for private funding.

For long distance, try to find yourself an "errand boy" in your market, for lack of a better term. Someone who can do odd jobs like assembling furniture, accept deliveries, take videos of contractors work, fix small things, etc but won't command a high hourly rate for specialized labor. Start with small low risk jobs and scale up from there as you build some trust. 

I found a guy on ThumbTack for my house in Greenville SC under "Movers". He advertised that he also cleans out crawl spaces and power washes houses, and there is no job that he hasn't turned down. I even had a situation where I would've needed someone to represent me in person with the sheriff and he was willing, but thankfully that situation resolved itself before it got to that!
