So that smells fishy..The vast majority of real estate agents do not own a rental property and have very little knowledge in that field.

This narrows the field as only a few stick out but they are the crews you want on your job.

Hi, could you please tell me where I can learn about the hotel acquisition field?

@Diana Tran Great questions and awesome you are starting to make some moves.I had a full time career but started purchasing homes out of state.

I can tell you a reinstatement and a payoff quote come from the same department in a bank and, follow the same parameters per federal rule.Maybe it's pulling off a touch down with 1 minute to go but sounds like maybe scoring on the wrong end of the field. 

My current neighbor has a PhD in STEM field. 

The markets don't want to field multiple quotes on the same property and compete against themselves, so they will only work with one broker an any given property. 

That's how you get the best of both worlds.I will defer to your judgement / answers as you are going to be more of an expert in the area and I am just basing it on spending a few months there and potentially wanting to live there in the future.Maybe I chose a wrong word when I said 'poor'.I stayed in Madrid during my time and I just based my response based on discussions I had with locals and 'high level research' on the internetIt appears that unemployment rate is high in Spain at around 11 percent with a higher rate for those who are younger.A had discussions with many where they are mentioning to go outside of Spain if they want to further their career or get a higher salary.locals have told me that it is difficult to start a business in Spain from getting approval and the taxes are higher for those that are self-employed.My personal assessment, which I think agrees with yours, it will be hard to make a rental work if you target it to locals but if you target it to outsiders, you can make it work.During my stay in Madrid - I stayed in Chamberi, Lavapies, La Latina, Malasana and spend around $60 to $120 a night mostly in airbnb's(basic rooms with basic furniture).
