I am brand new to real estate and am trying to start wholesaling, I have a realtor that I am working with to find homes.

I have lived in Arkansas my whole life, lived in all parts of the state, and have been in real estate for the last 8 years here. 

@Stephen MageeRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

This is where it pays to consult with a real estate attorney.

I have several close friends who specialize in audit representation so especially in the wheelhouse of real estate audits I get a good amount of feedback on trends.
