Build a strong team with experienced lenders, real estate agents, and property managers, and educate yourself through books and podcasts.

My manager is largely responsible for that. 

I would focus on coaching that helps you become a local expert and build relationships with sellers, not try all the BS marketing techniques.

As someone who occasionally works with these investors, I always try to emphasize the challenges that come with real estate like managing renovations, dealing with tenants, and navigating market fluctuations.

I am a broker and property manager here in Clarksville, TN.

The biggest lesson learned was managing stress.

Quote from @Josh Otero: Hi BP community, I know you've got some crazy tenant stories and I want to hear it.I'll go first:1) I was managing a 5 story apartment building and a dog fell off the 4th floor balcony because of the owner not paying attention.

I am just a beginner wholesaler so I haven't done much marketing/lead management yet.

Leverage will be reduced from the max available, reserve requirements increased and, typically, you would be required to use a professional property manager.

Either myself or project manager wen I don't have time, because most contractors need daily supervision.
