but if you have a view on active vs. passive income.my goal is to have income from multiple sources, ideally part time work that i enjoy is a component. 

Hey Allison, great questions.Agency Agreements: In North Carolina (the US entirely actually) you can’t view homes without a signed agency agreement, per recent law changes.

From an education point of view you don't have to be an expert.

It desn't take a lot for someone who knows a little to view someone who knows slightly more as an "authority".7.

Increase time spent conversing with each lead that you get to learn more about how they view the property and implement reasonable changes accordingly.

If you don't have a spectacular view or waterfront, get in line with all of the other sellers. 

I think they used to be more helpful in the past and they made some changes and now they're not so valuable.I see weird and different values for my Airbnb stats depending on if I'm using my laptop or phone to view them.

That is what I am trying to figure out, "what is the problem trying to solve" I view this as a problem for the current owner - who wants their cake and eat it too.

But if you were not a real estate professional and you have a W-2 income and a dividend and interest income, you would be taxed 37% on the combine of both the W-2 income and the dividend and interest income ($600K).It's still good to get accurate information from more experience professional to get more points of views and figure out what you can do in your situation.I hope you can find this very helpful in making your investing decisions. 

here are some ways to get cash flow:-tax savings on other sources of income from your real estate shielding it-selling an underperforming property and doing something with the proceeds-raising the rent on a property that was breaking even-refinancing a property when rates fall and using the tax free incomeso again, you need to have a broader view than "property X made $37 after all expenses in March." hope this helps
