How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

I am wondering if anyone is El Paso is doing the same thing that could help guide me in this process since I am a complete rookie as an investor. 

Hi Aaron,It's always challenging when companies go through transitions like this, especially when it involves something as personal and critical as managing retirement accounts.

I am going to be the contrarian on this subject.. 1. the pre license course is valuable as it teach's the vocabulary of real estate and the basic laws of your state.. its dirt cheap and one of the better ways to build your foundation. 2.

Just make sure you do you research on Manufactured guide lines and requirements. 

Quote from @Alvin Sylvain: This could be a good idea if executed properly.

But one of the most valuable lessons I’ve learned in my journey is that relationships are often the most critical part of success.
