Hi Scott, 

Thanks for differentiating between the two. That makes a lot of sense, referring to the experience that one would get managing Class A vs B and C. Honestly thanks for providing that prospective because I side along with "boots on the ground" type experience more. As I eventually want to build my own real estate portfolio.

Also funny you mention that, I'm actually reading that right now along with others.

Hi Louretta, 

Thanks for this helpful answer. I am now starting toward the process of getting my license (broker licensure in NC)

Also, are you licensed in both NC and SC or plan to?

And forgive me for my untimely reply.

@Davartay Miller

Thank you for replying with your helpful advice and wisdom. I will take this and run with it because everything you described is definitely what I desire. 

@Bjorn Ahlblad

Thanks for the valuable intel. And yea you are absolutely right about PM expertise brings value in a REI deal, that is one of the primary reasons I seek to be a PM, to see how experienced operators operate big and small assets. Because I've been learning how to underwrite and syndicate deals so aside from that, I want to experience how daily operations work. As you know without good PM, an investment that was brought to be an asset can quickly turn into a liability.

@Sean Sloop

Thanks for the helpful advice, truly appreciated. 

How would someone who has never had any property management experience, but is pretty well learned of the industry get their foot in the door with an entry level job such as assistant PM? Or for the PMs out there how did you start out and land a job? What were some keys steps that you did?
