As long as you follow protocol and get the property lead certified (which is particularly important in Cleveland), you'll be in good shape.

Someone may have lead generation problems.

Overbuilding and market softening could lead to downward pressure on prices, so consider areas with limited new construction.

However, it can also lead to personal disputes and issues with rent.

There is much more but lastly I am firm believer is the team approach as a new agent get on a team have them feed you leads and get paid to learn the trade.

Just want to lead with value.What do you think? 

If you source a property and provide the lead, then offer them a kickback if the deal goes under contract.

The weak point for the house is a sloping driveway that leads to the garage door where there is a drain opening right before the garage door and the water tends to be sloped towards it. 

It's an audacious goal, but if it leads to getting the first deal done, then I will try to encourage. 

This leads to lying/ misleading to make people think they are the real deal.
