Good share, Collin!

I've only had one listing transaction from my BP leads.Most are complete noobs or have limited REI experience with a rental or two.

I suppose you could share a portion of that with the cleaner if you are really desperate to keep her. 

Wishing you and your wife all the best in your investing journey—looking forward to sharing insights.

Most agents paying for leads are inexperienced, which is why they need to pay for leads.Look for an agent with a minimum of 15 years of active experience.

I have no experience in this but it seems to me it would be quite a value add.

To avoid going through the same poor experience, keep reading.Even if someone gives you a referral here, do NOT make the mistake of assuming that the PMC will meet your expectations, just because they met the expectations of the referral source.In our experience, the #1 mistake owners make when selecting a Property Management Company (PMC) is ASSUMING instead of CONFIRMING.It's often a case of not doing enough research, as they don't know what they don't know!

Whether it’s for fix-and-flips, rentals, or other projects, I’d love to learn more about who you’ve worked with and what your experience has been like.Do you have any solid connections or recommendations for private lenders who use their own capital?

Ask how many units they manage and how much experience they have.

Also you may want to reopen new cases as different reps lead to different results a lot of the time in my experience.
