Hello, I am currently looking to start the build up to my first investment property.

I am currently weighting the options of new bank. As my main/current bank is a military bank/credit union and I don't like that I cant see all pending transactions and deposits until a certain time (which is a little annoying, I prefer to see it at anytime of the day). And I would like the perk of multiple branches across the U.S.

I have narrower down the list of banks to the two bigger banks (mainly due to multiple branch locations in the US), I am interested in hearing anyone's experiences with these banks (basic reviews, insights, and ultimately experiences (good and the bad)) in order to pick the bank for the personal checking/savings account for rental property. Of course this account will be separate from my main personal account for tax ease, etc.

I am ultimately looking for:
- Website (easy and direct to the point use)
- App (easy to use, has access to all the banks options, can see deposits and pending transactions at all times) 
- Great Credit Card Interest rates (to include cash back, points, etc)

I look forward to hearing everyone's input.

I would search for a real estate agent license book, buy one on Amazon. Read it start to learn the smaller to bigger things about the information in the book.

Also:

I would take some time in drafting an introductory email, explaining that you want to become an agent and learn about real estate. Take your time in this process. It can/will be the ice breaker or deal ender for what you’re looking for.

Start asking/looking around in your local area for agents (instagram is great for watching agents) and see who (which agent) seems to be informative and helpful in teaching the process of buying/selling real estate. Then once you can narrow down who you will like to work alongside with. Send that email and see where it takes you. You can simply ask to be their assistant, etc.

Hi. 

I am currently looking for any recommendations for a business attorney in the St. Petersburg, Florida area. I am considering buying an existing (small) business and would like to meet/talk with a attorney to help guide me in looking over the business documents, laws and the transaction (if the business checks out and is a good investment). I am currently in Aurora/Denver, Colorado looking to move to Florida for this. Any recommendations are welcome. 

Thank you for reading my post.
