This impacts both recruitment and retention.

A pyramid scheme relies on recruiting other people and paying early investors with money from later investors.

We work in several different markets and found it easier to recruit agents in markets like the Midwest rather than the West Coast.

I would also recommend reaching out to someone you know in HR/talent acquisitions/recruiting to help you define your needs and then the pay rate could be discussed.

-side note- I am a member of REAPS and REIA and they aren't paying me to recruit people or whatever.Jeff

We were planning to save a minimum of 70k before starting (I work as an executive recruiter and my wife a cardiac nurse, therefore raising capital can be done somewhat quickly.)But a lot of you are saying we should at least save 100k before getting into the multifamily market in FL?

Looking to recruit some potential buyers there.

What are some good questions to ask when visiting brokerages because I know a lot of brokerage are trying to get you in the door to recruit for them?

@Tyler Barranger  I'll DM you....as sometimes BP doesn't always like advertising/recruiting here.

We have $25k for emergencies, and another $65k either in brokerage accounts or high interest savings/checking accounts, though we're pretty far behind in retirement savings due to some debt I had from the only other time I've been a landlord (a long story about getting screwed by a RE attorney/property manager from a home from my previous marriage), which has been paid off since 2013.I've known about my unemployment since Thanksgiving and am trying to move up the corporate ladder, but am finding it difficult to progress to in-person interviews for job titles that are above anything I've had yet, but I am getting initial interviews for VP/EVP/SVP roles with recruiters.
