RE Brokers in the area are a key team member as they should know the area, good rental areas, and they will be a good resource for rentals (possibly, if they deal in rentals).

Just wanted to introduce myself and enjoying the Bigger Pockets site and forums.

Please share any helpful resources, your personal experiences, and what you have found to be valuable with every transaction.

Additional resources and tools via brokerage.... 

I just want to get the management side of things right if I were to commit virtually all of my resources to it.Best,Dustin The rule of thumb is somewhere between 80 and 150 units is when you will need FT maintenance (depending on age and amount of deferred maintenance).

That data would be sales price after remodel (the true numbers some agents really don't have the experience to be comping the property), the days on market you will experience (this is great info because you want to recycle the money quickly), and resources to sell the place fast not slowly which you do not want this because this could put your holding costs extremely high and push the property to little profit or no profit.
