Probably the best aspect is that the newbie has an opportunity to expand his real estate knowledge which he can hopefully use in the future for INVESTING.  

All boring lingo, but the co-signor aspect that you asked works the same. 

For one, you can never learn everything there is about REI anyways, so you might as well learn the fundamentals, WAIT, NO, sorry, learn to "Know Thyself" and master yourself through working on yourself, then learn the fundamentals or technical aspect of the Real Estate strategy. 

We're working with so many different asset classes and keep every aspect of real estate in-house, so continuing to narrow my scope is important.

@Nathan Dobbins finding a great deal takes strategic marketing.

This should give me some time to get to know the ins and outs of Tahoe's common booking dates so I can strategize for next year.
