For my clients, in every city I am set-up in I have an agent who pulls all the comps and writes up an opinion on the value based on size, area, finishes, market. 

It spreads their risk.In regard to market, there's a couple of different approaches my clients take:1.)

New to real estate but possess a deep understanding of the responsibilities to continue to gain knowledge and remain loyal with my clients and professionally with my colleagues.  

A lot of my clients buying in FL are happy with minimal return but are buying for second homes, tax benefits, etc.I would stick with value add - with refi you can still achieve high CoC and a good equity position. 

They also have a fiduciary responsibility to their client, in this case the seller.

Most reverse exchanges are done with cash from the client or a private loan of some sort from an individual or a portfolio bank.When your old property sells you will have that cash in your account to purchase the new property. 

This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

Primarily self limiting beliefs.One of my clients just closed on their first commercial deal and they only had one duplex before I started working with them. 

Our clients are very active in buying pre-foreclosures.

When you have a client that needs management, you refer them to your preferred PM for a fee.
