I recently obtained my HI real estate license to access the MLS and assist with my personal house-hunting needs.Does anyone know of a more boutique brokerage on Maui where I can hang my license with minimal overhead and without the requirement of going through a mentorship program?

Quote from @Tom Gimer: @Jay Hinrichs We essentially have an in-house abstractor (Salt Abstracts — MD; M&M — DC), so when I REALLY need it I can have title in ~1 hour.I try not to be that demanding often but it’s a nice resource to have access to. not everybody has an abstractor on Speed dial LOL..

Choosing a location near LA, accessible by a short flight or drive, will make it easier to check on your projects.

@Brett Jurgens To leverage your Denver rental's equity, consider a HELOC or cash-out refinance to access funds while keeping the property and rental income.

Its certainly allowable on FF, but I'd make it crystal clear in your advertising that you are filling rooms in the unit rather than listing the whole space once you've filled a room (or 2 or 3).

As I'm sure you can imagine, it's been incredibly difficult for even the claims adjustors to gain access to the properties.

Their previous lease includes a portion of storage in the basement with laundry access(also in basement).Current set up: tenant occupies floor #2 with separate access to the basement for their laundry and storage.Future plan: reno basement and remove storage/laundry access for tenant.

If you can maximize all 3, then you've also created a very wide lead funnel, which is less common in multifamily properties.Maximizing "pets" means you're removing carpet, allowing at least 2 pets including cats and larger dogs > 50 lbs, access to a fully fenced-in yard or walking distance to a dog park, leniency on breed restrictions (depends on insurance, your risk tolerance, due diligence with pets during inquiry phase), pet friendly furniture (e.g. faux leather couch, low pile rugs if at all), etc.

When you sell the property, and access the equity in the form of liquid cash, you make your profit. 

One of the potential advantages of property managers is access to the vendors they use.
