I stopped for a while to do life coaching and energy work, and then I met a guy who was a broker that wanted to get more into the development side so we teamed up with his dad, a lawyer, and started up.As things have progressed, I am now finding lots of deals, and as it turns out, the guy I am working with is not really delivering the investors like he said he could/would so I am learning that part of the process now too as most of my deals sit quietly on the sidelines.

For your situation I would investigate some of the virtual brokerages a live broker with the fit feel and learning you after would be best However the virtual options offer deep archives if your a self learner it will come down to ymhiw you work and learn beat and what the brokerage would accept all the bestTim

How does the process work? And

Your architect will determine the scope of work and whether a structural engineer is needed. 

I know it takes time and hard-work and I’m willing to do what it takes.
