Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

Such actions are wholly unacceptable and should not be tolerated within any professional environment.The discrepancies between the program's marketing claims and the actual conduct of its top students, as exemplified by Kristin Witherspoon, are deeply troubling.

Here is my list of the most dangerous real estate related investments for the “non professional” investor lacking direct knowledge  and experience in these investments 1.

Many “wholesalers” get all excited when getting a property under contract only to discover that a thorough inspection by a knowledgable professional results in repair costs 2 - 3 times higher than they calculated. 

Most professionals will recommend a separate LLC for every $1 million in assets but I don't think that's necessary.

Any guidance or referrals to professionals you trust would be greatly appreciated!

Readers should seek professional advice. 

My tax professional is stating that I would need an appraisal to show the lot/structure are valued at $400k if I try to claim $200k as a donation.

It could indicate they lack sufficient knowledge or experience in professional property management, which may lead to costly issues for you down the line.

Can this person now be "a real estate" professional?
