This is the closest opportunity in months that I have had to get another property and I do not know how to attack this situation.

., not really a buy and hold sfh forum), pick closest one.  

If the project goes downhill I would owe the people closest to me.

If your rent is $750, and that's what you can afford, limit your PITI payment to $600-$650.Be sure to locate the closest Home Depot!

@Brandon Hall is a virtual CPA who is closest to you though.

Show me your 5 closest influencers and I will show you what you will look like in 5 years.

The NAICS code is just informational, so pick the closest RE category that you like.

So if I were to recruit you to Keller Williams and you sell a house and earn a commission and your office makes a profit that month, I would get a profit sharing check based on that sale from that office, but does not affect your commission in any way - it's hard to explain.That disclosure out of the way - in Kansas City, for any new agent traditional or investor, I would spend at least a year, probably two in a Keller Williams office.1) They have the best training for agents in Kansas City2) They have the best training to teach you how to run a business and market that business - that translates very well to the investor.3) They don't have board duty or quotes, many of the big companies do.I think every new agent should learn how to do their job correctly, whether they intend to be a traditional agent or not, and KW will teach you that and they also teach how to run your business like a business, very helpful for a new investor.If I were picking offices I would go with the one closest to your home or your day job so you can make their training classes.Once you are experienced, I would say stay with KW for at least 3 years so you can become vested (It was 3 years when I was there and I was there for about 6 years), so you to can bring in new agents and earn profit sharing.They also have an amazing back office and tools to run your realtor business, that again works for the investor too.If you already know what you are doing, then I would probably be looking at Chartwell, Platinum or Kansas City Regional Homes for 100% commission offices.Reece and Nichols usually does not want you unless you are a traditional agent and meeting their quotas.

We are not local to North Bay, but this would be the closest and most affordable university/college town to where we currently live.

Networking creates more opportunities for me than anything else and some of my now closest friends come from these groups.https://www.meetup.com/the-ring/https://www.meetup.com/Louisiana-Hard-Money-Private-Lenders/See you at the top!
