I've been wondering what resources everyone uses to examine a property when they can't see it immediately or at all.I haven't invested yet but I've been using the MLS to find properties, BiggerPockets to run numbers, Google Maps' to examine what the neighborhood looks like through Street View and what businesses, if any, are nearby, Zillow's Lot Lines to see nearby property values at a glance, Rentometer to find out average and median rent price for the area (although it's no longer letting me analyze properties for free, sadly) and Great Schools .org to find out what the district is like for any potential family moving in.If anyone has additional sites or apps they regularly or sometimes use, let me know!

You're really getting off on the wrong foot here, there are two bank examiners in this thread, I'm retired and one of them.

There are a few different ways to make this work.If you are in CA, you can take the required courses along with a relevant 4 year college degree and potentially sit for the broker's exam in lieu of transactional experience.

The circles I run and ran in are (were) hundreds of banks as an examiner, many mortgage wholesalers, mortgage brokerages, running my own mortgage company, government, economic development. 

I'd recommend examining what would work best for you, and focus on becoming an expert in one strategy.  

A certified copy means that the certifying person, has examined the original document and the copy and that the copy is a true and correct duplicate of the original document.

I used to work with a company that would commission the ROTC and Service Academy initial medical examinations (DoDMERB) and the respect that I have for you young brave people grew daily in that role.Congratulations to you and your team on your success.

I wonder about the parallels and how well those have been working in that industry, as well as if there are any lessons learned that could be applicable.Part of a bank examination is the assessment of the quality and maturity distribution of the bank's investment portfolio, something I usually ended up doing along with loans.

Hey Guys,Long story short I was injured at work a few years ago and I have nerve damage in my arm so I am being retrained from workmans compensation for a new career because I can no longer work in the construction trades industry.I want something to do with real estate but I do not want to be an agent, I was thinking about going to school for Business at least for general education just to learn basic skills.I would like to invest in real estate property of course for my own pleasure and I will do but if im getting schooling and training ALL PAID for and paid while attending I might as well use it to my advantage.Workmans comp is also willing to place me at any job place that is willing to train me and pay the same as I used to make, so do you guys have any suggestions of organizations that I can advance VERY HIGH over timeI was thinking developing , what other career choices can you guys throw at me?

Therefore, it is important to do your homework and examine all of the potential fees and expenses that will impact the overall return on your investment.
