And... to distinguish you and your products requires large lists, extensive affiliation relationships, much travel (selling to the RE Associations), and no guarantees of success.4.

I'm not sure of restrictions on listing these companies...I'm not affiliated w/ either but wanted to share to save people time!

(non-affiliate link below)? 

Don't worry, I'm not affiliated with these two guys. 

turn-key buy-and-hold investment properties with Real Wealth Network based out of CA--a free network where you can get lots of free education + free investment counseling and they vet turn-key affiliates in a number of different markets: realwealthnetwork.comWe have used conventional loans (20% down) for all four of our properties so far.The best "guru" specific to buy-and-hold real estate investments that I have found is Keith Weinhold.

There is a local REIA tonight in Charlotte with a lot of investors who thus a lot of experience (I am in no way affiliated with said REIA thus I recommend it because I think its a good place to learn not for personal profit).

I have never used it nor am I affiliated with it, just remeber hearing about it several years ago. 

I understand the owners and maybe other affiliated with Rocket were dumping tons of money in the the city to make it a nicer place to live and work and attract younger workers.   

Hi Keith -Unfortunately, I'm unfamiliar with that specific geography -- I'm a sales agent that works alongside NAI Heritage in Ocala, Florida.However, I do recommend you try reaching out to one of our Affiliate partners: NAI Meridian.

REACT (yes I am also and affiliate for them) is really pretty simple, find a  nice FSBO, get and agreement (contract) on it, market it for a profit and hopefully sell it.
