Happy to help if the process is quick and easy. Send me a DM.

You don't need to pay for a course. My licensed assistant is also my TC and I'm happy to share her template, process, etc. Send me a DM if you'd like. She was using Trello but may be using something else within our new CRM. Also, we just use Google drive to share/store transaction folders. She also places deadlines and reminders on my Google calendar. Best wishes on your journey!

I would search Port Angeles Realty online. They have a few members listed in our Commercial Brokers Association directory (CBA). Maybe start with James Haguewood. Best wishes on your plans!

Pools and trampolines should be avoided. Too much liability and I'm fairly certain your insurance company would also not allow or cover tenants to have either. I'm sure they will be disappointed but they need to know that there is liability for you AND them. I've heard stories of kids from the neighborhood coming over to use either and getting hurt, then suing the residents and the property owner. If your lease doesn't specify the restriction, it should. Best of luck!

Welcome to BP! It is never too late to jump into real estate investing. With your skills you have a good advantage to save on expensive labor costs on projects or improving rental units, unlike me that needs to hire for everything. I'm local and happy to connect if you ever need to talk biz. Best wishes on your journey!

Building a cash buyer list is the easy part, in my opinion. Find a deal that will actually make money for a buyer and you'll build a decent list from the initial interest. Post it in the WAREI Facebook group and you'll be flooded with people dropping their emails. If you're a member of the NWMLS, just look at recent flipped deals and note the seller. I built a list of 80+ potential buyers that way but I really only needed 3-4 solid, consistent buyers that took pretty much every deal I had. Best wishes on your journey here!

 Sorry, I'm not a coach or mentor.

@Kaleb Johnson if you are serious about wholesaling, it is highly recommended that you hire a real estate attorney in your state to help you draft the docs you need, applicable in your state. Same goes if you're trying to wholesale in other states. Many experienced RE attorneys should likely already have something similar to your needs that can be amended to suit your business. I probably spent a few hundred bucks on my contract and assignment agreement. You are dealing with a real estate transaction and there is a lot of liability and exposure, especially for the inexperienced. You're not just selling a tv on craigslist or something. Looking for free or cheap paperwork online is not the route to take. Best of luck!

Welcome to the industry @Hillary Buckingham! Focus on a specialty/niche whether waterfront, multifamily, vacation props or even just a specific neighborhood to be THE expert. Then create content around this specialty. Resist the temptation to chase the average home buyer and seller that likely 100s or 1000s of other "realtors" are doing in your area. Joining a team is a good suggestion but not sure if all teams will allow you to specialize outside of the team's focus. They will likely want you to do all the traditional lead gen steps: cold call, open houses, door knock, etc. Works for many agents but those are all miserable (in my opinion) and I don't do any of them.

With you avg prices around $360k (and maybe 2.5% or so your side), you really only need to do about six transactions to hit your target. Stats are not in your favor but forget the stats as it all depends on the individual's drive, effort and processes. 

Best wishes on your journey!

Welcome @Sameul Ahsan! As other have stated, the best thing you can do for the BP community is contribute to the forums. Hopefully in a positive and helpful manner rather than judging and criticizing like some, which thankfully is pretty rare. 

Being a part of the featured agent program has helped generate leads and build relationships from those leads. 

Piece of advice - when I started I wish I would have focused on my multifamily niche/expertise from day one vs trying to be the agent for everyone (flippers, STR buyers, land, etc).

Best wishes on your journey!
