I live in Southern California, have family in Tennessee (Nashville), and real estate friends in Indianapolis.

You need to go to real estate investor meetups and make friends.

If you are new and want to go about if on your own, and your Uncle or Brother or Friend is not your GC, expect what's called in business "Bad Debt Expense" which means essentially that you need to lose money until you learn how it's done and get proper ppl in place.Good Luck. 

Next, the GP which owns 1% should be a Delaware LLC because Delaware corporate laws are well established and business friendly.

Friend of a friend with a portfolio of 30+ homes was contacted by them to basically sell his portfolio to them in exchange for shares. that would be a HUGE non starter for me..

**Mobile Optimization**: Ensure it’s mobile-friendly, as many users browse listings on phones.Some real estate agents or agencies use tools like LeadPages or Instapage to create attractive, lead-capturing single listing pages quickly.

I don't want to have to introduce them to a new workflow for submitting maintenance requests (e.g. now log into latchel).

Hey Kyle, the agent finder on BP is going to lead you to the best investor friendly agents in your target market. 

I've called support for Airbnb and VRBO many times -- super friendly but no real difference. 

I have two friends who own rental properties and they are successful with their properties, I read Rich Dad Poor Dad twice along with Rental Property Investing and Power of Habit, I've been told by multiple people apart of the Baby Boomer and Generation X that they wish they invested in Real Estate at my age, I was a Resident Advisor at my University and I enjoyed that role so some of the skills are transferrable, and lastly this is the best time for me to take a risk.
