@Mario MoralesI think this is a common question and the value that an agent will bring will vary by individual needs.

States Can Still Require Additional FilingsEven though 506(b) offerings are exempt from state registration, individual states can still require notice filings and fees.

I work out of my basement and have been trying to find a location near me that rents out individual offices. 

By 2030, we want to have grown a portfolio of over 100 units, created a property management company that manages an additional 100-200 units, and, finally (and most importantly), we will have established a non-profit that is focused on quality, affordable housing that specializes in providing housing and resources at/on the "services cliff" alongside financial counseling and first-time home buyer education in our target area.Our target area is the Springfield, MA and Hartford, CT areas with dreams to expand to Central Massachusetts (Worcester, MA), Southern New Hampshire (Nashua, NH), and Southern Connecticut (New Haven, CT).Would love to meet up with likeminded individuals in our area!

So I said all of that to say... lol, Yes, I think you can absolutely find a PM that would help answer some questions, and I hope you find some kind individuals. :-) All the best!  

And if you go under contract as an individual, can you then JV with another investor or is it too late?

I reached out to the individual marketing the deal to schedule a property viewing, but they’re asking for proof of funds (which I expected) and a signed purchase agreement or LOI.Is this normal?

It is our goal to provide all the tools, resources, education & coaching any individual needs to learn how to build a sustainable investment portfolio to achieve financial independence & generational wealth through real estate investing.It should be noted, that while the Academy is not a requirement to invest with RTR, the individuals that do join the Academy are much more successful long term since they have spent time to clearly develop their own individual investment strategy & plan!

As a would be individual landlord with just a one unit single family property I don’t know I can stomach the risk or withstand a financial assault resulting from an eviction process for a non-paying tenant (or tenants that do extensive damage).I am seriously considering bowing out and selling.

Like you, I’m diving into books and podcasts, but I also believe there’s immense value in learning alongside others and gaining hands-on experience.I’m in the process of connecting with like-minded individuals to create a community of new investors who are eager to learn, share knowledge, and even collaborate on deals.
