Major player is not anything I would consider to be an accurate description of him. 

If near me we can get a coffee.

When you're new with no experience, It will be extremely hard to find anyone that will go into business with you if you have no skin in the game, and you don't know enough buyers and sellers to be an efficient wholesaler. 

Do cost segregation very quickly now and redo your 2022 and 2023 tax returns before 10/15. 2022 will be an "amended return" with bonus depreciation; 2023 will be a "superceding return" with less depreciation than you already claimed for 2023 (i.e. somewhat higher taxes).

I live in Fremont and wondering if we can meet for a coffee sometime? 

Hello @Reva SchwobI'm in your market and I can say that there's no one proven method for success, but rather it needs to be an ecosystem of a little bit of everything.

if its vacant and your getting 3 to 4 showings a week which is huge its price or the condition of the property ( condition beat up rental) Price to high given the condition.. has nothing to do with RE agent etc etc.. its a combo of those two things i.. its always those two things.. unless you bought  in a very bad part of town full of rentals .. that could also be an issue .. and if you did then your only out is to rent it and sell for what an investor will give you based on its income and what they are willing to pay for a given income. 

That might be an option.

I hired a PM because I didn't want to be a PMLikewise I hired an ops manager a few years ago to deal with my property managers and other staff so I could continue to do what I do best which is be an investor.

And speaking about retail, you also have other real world issues that can impact things: co-tenancy requirements, use restrictions, etc, that may not be an issue with the current tenant lineup, but can certainly impact your ability to fill vacancies or maintain occupancy as tenants roll.And to address what seem to be your follow-on questions for people: there is no exhaustive list.
