@Natasha Baker - To be a successful agent, you definitely need access to a car to show properties and to list properties.

For example, in an ocean market beach views and access have far higher demand than those without.

The cites and communities ringing the lakes are still affordable and offer access to fresh water and more moderate weather.

I even got a little support from a professor at MIT, who gave me much needed scientific journal access for a few years to pursue my hobby!

We always do a 15-business-day inspection period and advise the seller that we will need access to the property, which usually takes 2 to 3 days to get our financial partners and contractors to the site.

Upselling here is a thing of the past, the knowledge is constantly updated and new knowledge gets added at no extra charge because of the lifetime access of the program.

I downloaded the AZ forms (before becoming an agent and having access to the AAR forms) and they were very thorough. 

Should they be made into a small common area that the main unit also has access to?

Makes your property more accessible (at least on the surface).Bad: Has a cost which is not used most of the time.

One of the PMs I use, does some investing on the side and has access to his own set of contractors/vendors.
