#92: How Do I Hire an All-Star Rental Property Team?

Paula Pant Afford Anything Podcast Episode 92 Hiring all star rental property teamIf you’re interested in real estate investing, and if you’ve wondered how to assemble an all-star team, today’s episode is for you.

I’m hosting another edition of Ask Paula, in which I tackle three audience-submitted questions about building a team as a real estate investor.

Salome from Cincinnati asks:

Who are the people I’ll need on my real estate team? How much will I spend in paying them? And how can I find them?

Doug from Louisiana asks:

I’ve saved $20,000 as the downpayment on a rental property. Should I use this money? Or should I look for a loan that can cover a larger chunk of the financing?

Also, how should I look for a tenant? Should I handle this myself, or hire a property manager?

Patricia from California asks:

I live in Bay Area. I cannot buy a house here. I want to buy a rental property in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and I’ve identified the specific property/neighborhood in which I want to invest. How can I start assembling a team from out-of-state?

Enjoy!
