Local Institutions: We’re curious about schools, community centers, and other amenities that make certain neighborhoods more appealing to tenants.Additionally, we’d love to connect with:Experienced real estate agents who know the market inside and out.We’re eager to learn and truly appreciate any insights, advice, or connections you can share.

I would get in touch with a local builder, and see about getting a mentorship on down days and days you have off..
