@Erik B. Thanks! We started with a family friend that was an agent in Jacksonville. She switched to doing new construction about a year later. My husband was looking for a commercial agent a few months before that and found one on LinkedIn. The agent he found was the owner of a brokerage in Jacksonville and referred his top property manager because I was looking for a new listing agent. When our agent switched and we needed a new one, I gave this PM a shot as he also did sales. He's been amazing and I recommend him to every investor that wants to acquire in Jacksonville! 

As for the requirements, that's a loaded question haha. It depends on what we are trying to do. For rentals sometimes we need something with very minimal work and other times we want something that requires more work. We have also acquired properties that we will be able to flip in the future. You can read about that and our returns here  :)  https://www.biggerpockets.com/...

@Khoa Dao Aww thank you!! I’m sure you can and you WILL!! :) 

@Scott Rihm Thanks for your comment! Agreed on the power of networking! Very interesting that you broker self storage. Never thought of doing that. There are definitely a lot of opportunities in REI.

@Lehi Alo Awesome! I’ll check my messages shortly and be sure to reply :) 

@Account Closed Yes I own 3 and then 1 more with a partnership. I never said I was retiring from 3 doors. We are planning on getting more doors as well as having our own brokerage where we are finding properties for other investors and doing property management. To acquire more doors we will try doing some flips as well as saving cash from our cash flow and W-2 jobs. We also want to try some brrr deals. I’ll post updates on those :) Our goal right now is 100 doors but of course that takes time! 

@Steven Cobb That's awesome! It's fun when your spouse also loves REI!

Great questions. I wrote a few blogs that can help. Let me know if you have any questions after reading them! https://www.biggerpockets.com/... And https://www.biggerpockets.com/...

@Stephen Keighery Great idea! I’ll plan on doing an update post :)
