Professionally, i have my license and already started to build some relationships. 

Hey Kendric,I would focus on growing relationships and building your core 4.

@Salome Ditmars Although it is great to get referrals this is also something you should take upon yourself to get to know the sponsor and establish a relationship with them since this is your hard earned money you are looking invest with them. 

Just be mindful to keep relationships with your tenants strong.I’m curious... if you had to pick just one route right now..sell, refinance, or optimize..where do you think you’d lean, and why?

Some of these bookings we get through marketing partners who build these relationships and charge referrals fees for finding the housing.

You’re not just managing a property—you’re building relationships and your reputation. 

Diversification and long-term goals should guide your decision.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

If it crashes hard enough, it impacts your personal finances, your relationships, and even your mental/physical health.With the exceptions of politicians and so-called charities, building wealth typically requires sacrifice and time.

Their "preferred" management company as it turns out isn't so great and has told me that wholesalers such as ReadyREI call them "preferred" to make it seem like there is more of a relationship than there really is.I would never work with this deceptive and unprofessional company again.

While not every mentor is a guaranteed path to success, proper vetting through referrals, review of a mentor’s track record, and alignment between the mentee and the mentor can shine some light on whether or not this relationship is a good fit.
