I'll elaborate on your question based on my own personal experience...When I got my FL license I interviewed with a few larger, well known brokers and then a few small boutique type brokers.

With seven years in the rearview mirror, and our real estate market looking like it’s considerably healthier, I’ve decided to test the waters again, and hang my real estate license with a local boutique broker here in Southern Utah.Straddling both sides of the 9 to 5 fence - I now find myself working from 4 AM until 1 PM at my day gig, then putting back together the pieces of my long neglected real estate website, and social network until late in the evening.While it’s a long and arduous battle to reestablish contacts… As well as create new ones, I know it’s ultimately worth it.I currently find myself trying to re-establish some high-value reciprocal links for SEO purposes.

Plan on calling at least 100 smaller boutique banks tomorrow and inquiring with their asset/management REO department.

The only experience I had was with a nice boutique hotel in town.

My preference is boutique subdivision development and specs but that's not viable at the moment in my locale.

Large (7,000 sf +\- as well as 2 acre property, watercraft docks and almost 300 fr of waterfront on a lake) boutique hotel and event space.

I would strongly advise you to find a boutique like fund.

There are all kinds of PMCs and some boutique ones that will do a la cart pricing.

There are only a few smaller boutique motels on the island and in the area so most vacation rental property owners use Airbnb/VRBO to advertise and manage their properties.

Finding the right lender will probably mean to stay away from the big institutions and find something that's more of a boutique brokerage.
