A must-read - MREA- Millionaire Real Estate Agent - it outlines the systems for success in your RE business.  You'll learn these if you are a KW agent, and non KW realtors are welcome to many of their trainings as well.

@Yaric Mifedov 

Given what you say your goals are, very focused around getting training and reaching 6 figures first year, you'll want to surround yourself with an organization that supports this, however all brokerages will say they offer training. I speak from experience.  Keller Williams is a training and education company disguised as a RE company.  They live and breath training, and have an unparalleled culture of agents sharing and modeling how they reach success.  You will get a mentor, and have training opportunities every day of the week, learning from other agents.  I am definitely biased as I spent 8 years with KW-Keller Williams with great success due to the people I was surrounded by, and enjoyed coaching and training other agents to success '04-'11 while KW grew from #7 to #1 RE franchise in the country, added commercial & expanded to international.  You will learn how to create systems, build your team, create leverage, and most importantly lead generate, the reason most agents don't succeed and get out of the business is they can't get over the fears of lead generation therefore selling 1-2 homes a year and struggle or leave the biz. Gary Keller is author of the Millionaire RE Agent which outlines systems they teach.   More specifically, since you are becoming an investor, ask if there is an agent in the franchise you join who is an investor or property manager and saddle up with them if they mentor.  I had multiple mentors including a PM, Franchise owner and a successful team.   I could go on for days, .  Glad to hear you are meeting with a KW person.

@Jasmine Brumfield hopefully you found the contract you need so you can wholesale these after all the hustle you likely put in to find them. A lot of people will spend all their time prepping and never take action to lead generate so nicely done! Keep us posted and good luck!
@Charles Molluzzo. Spotify also works great, BP is always current

@Sam B. Way to put it out there to stay true! Curious why chose SFH vs 2-4 MF? Inventory or the numbers work better in that area with SFH? Thanks

@Nicole Walley if you know a solid reputable general contractor in your area that’s another resource you could consult with to check thIngs out since you don’t want to go to the city at this juncture. A top GC wIll be able to shed some lIght on what may and may not pass or have to be torn apart and converted back. Your InstIncts are rIght on to be concerned. Good luck
