Curious to hear how others handle this.Since we service our own loans - and since these are commercial, not residential, there are few farther barriers we need to cross.  

There are endless reasons why the Oregon Coast is an attractive investment destination and looking forward for AirBNB investors is a higher barrier to entry for competition.  

Demand they find work within a specific time period unless they are unable due to mental or physical disability.

This particularly irked me because I had brought over the physically signed pages to their office.

If you're not physically present in the market, find a property manager.  

There are markets in the Midwest and Southeast - places like Cleveland, OH, and Birmingham, AL, where you can buy turnkey rental properties for under $120K–$200K and cash flow with a low barrier to entry (15–20% down) and property management in place.

Upfront rent seeks to lower barrier of entry but risk of ruin is high.

Demolition is another biz with a low entry barrier, even easier than solving environmental issues. 

Because of that low barrier to entry, plenty of investors from all over are looking at this city.

My dad decided to self gen his leads.. much like you wholesalers self gen leads today.he bought a printing press I printed off door hangers after school and then my mom drove us to neighborhoods and we physically handed out the flyers door to door.
