What's up! My name is Mel, and as the title says, I'm a newbie investor living in Sacramento looking to purchase her first door. I work full time, love to be outdoors, try out new breweries, and spend time with my pup. I'm still in the education phase, but I decided I'm going invest out of state using the BRRRR method. I've honed in on the midwest and am looking at the KC market. I'm starting to think about building my out of state team, and would love to connect with any of you on what you look for in specific team members or red flags you've experienced.

I'm excited to learn from this group and begin contributing once I get some more experience under my belt. Looking forward to connecting!

-Mel

Hi all - my name is Mel and I'm a newbie in REI. I'm looking for advice on building my out of state team. I'm close to narrowing down which city and specific area I want to buy my first door in and I plan on using the BRRRR method, so I'm really starting to think about building my team.

For those that are/were in a similar boat, what aspects do you like about your team that you think they do really well? What are the attributes you look for? Or what red flags have you experienced? 

Realistically I see myself being able to get out to the property once to meet or interview potential team members. This part of the process is something I'm pretty nervous about since this would be my first deal. Any advice about finding the right property managers, agents, contractors, or lenders would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
