Really great inspiration here! The house looks awesome. How soon after everything was said and done did you get this home rented? 

If you answered this question already, i do apologize! 

Coming from a 550+ unit complex it is quite rare I see a rental w/ out appliances. More importantly washer/dryer isn't the biggest issue but I do notice the trend that the units with the most appliances go first. Pretty crazy to see the trends in this forum.

whats the status? 

nice response @Don Konipol. On my way to learn more! 

That's a great question, I am sure it deals with your personal preference or your budget. 25+ units hiring an agent and a Maintenance tech would be the best solution in my opinion. Why work so hard and buy a income generating property if you personally have to be a slave to it. Work the money wisely and have it pay for itself.  

A beer and some BBQ! @Matthew Lockwood did you end up finding a apartment building? 

Congrats! Now to track down those leads! Successful marketing & listings is your bread and butter! 

I have been lurking on this site for awhile now. I finally came to terms that real estate will be my future. Cant wait to really get out there and begin networking and going to these events in the PNW.  

Thank you William Bannister your information is very helpful. I will be taking action before this week ends.

Prashant P.I was thinking about going this route however it would not be ideal for me at this time for me right now.

Phillip Dwyer I seriously would do the same if anyone owned rental property around me thanks for your insight.

David Beard Your idea is for someone that has a year to learn an invest in another firm. I myself dont have that time. But thanks for the advice.

Hello everyone,

I am fairly new to the world of real estate and property management world.

I am currently 50% into finishing up my pre reqs for my real estate test in California.

Also state wise I am a working an functional business here in California. My main goal is to "Create successful business opportunities for every investor." My company reaches all areas that property owners look for in property managers over and beyond. From communication, customer service down to maintenance and outsourcing for bigger jobs.

However in the "Property Management field" we lack experience as a property management company.

So my question is how will I gain that in this economy? I have a few reputable people that will write letters of recommendation. As far as advertising I am currently working on a website. But till then what else should I do? Should I even send out cover letters still or will I just get laughed at?

My goal is to at least gain 4 or 5 contracts before 2013 ends. Is that even realistically possible for a new and young company in this field?

-Thanks in advance.
