I just set up my vrbo account and still some finer details about planning the communication, cleaning service, maintenance persons, etc…

Many of these PM's have too much on their plate and are unable to provide you with consistent communication.

What’s your communication style and preferred level of involvement with this deal?

Communication is key and transparency is something call centers do not offer.If you ever have any questions or want to network feel free to reach out or send me an email. 

I'm unsure if they lend on new builds or not, they do have a website where you can set a virtual meeting with them.https://www.goodfaithfund.com/

(One virtual and one local).   

It’s a smart move, especially since it ties in with your goal of saving for your first investment.For skills, you probably already have a good foundation with your sales experience—things like communication, organization, and dealing with clients are all super valuable.

You may want to make an introduction between your CPA to those 2 colleagues.The CPA can go over their services and pricing to your colleagues.I partner with many people on real estate deals - It never gets to a discussion on whether they do their own tax return or hire a professional.If a partner mentions he will provide capital - does he provide the capital on a timely manner.If a partner mentions he will find deals - does he find many deals and provide an analysisIf a partner mentions he will manage a property - does he manage the property well(find tenants, collect rent, communicate with contractors, etc)

Quote from @Samuel Kim: Quote from @Tim Delaney: Does she handle all the tenant communication?

And even though virtually every sponsor agreement allows me to share investment information with others who might be advising me on it (especially when club members are bound by an NDA), I still ask the sponsor if I can share it, because it's a test.
