@Zach Lemaster and his team was super helpful, supportive, and knowledgeable which ensured a super smooth purchasing process!

Additionally, it’s important that your PM has onsite staff who are knowledgeable about the specific markets they manage.

It takes time and knowledge.

As I’m saving up for my first investment, I would like to learn more about the industry - and it would be nice to earn some income while doing so.Are there any specific skills or knowledge I need to secure a VA side gig? 

@Jay HinrichsI try to avoid historic districts at all costs.

It’s crucial to have local market knowledge or work with someone who does.

I don't have that experience or too much knowledge outside of my own research.

While podcasts, books, seminars, and websites offer general knowledge, you'll buy a specific property in a specific location, subject to local rules and regulations.

As important as due diligence, analysis, knowledge of the property type, track record of the syndicator, correctly predicting economic trends, and timing is, the number 1 way to avoid a devastating loss is NEVER INVEST MORE THAN 10% OF YOUR INVESTABLE ASSETS IN ANY ONE DEAL.  

They will have better knowledge of what you need and how to do it then just finding one on the internet.
