So you are down to either a mission driven non-profit or charity or some type of govt program (the latter of which will involve your taxes). 

A&A is one I would not give a chance just because I called them 3 times and emailed in regards to one of their clients selling some homes and NEVER got a call back. 

I have never lived there but I have driven through a lot and repossessed a few cars there.

My business partner and I ultimately decided to solely focus on Raleigh-Durham due to its growth potential driven by the universities and tech.

I will say that since I got started a few years ago the REIA's have drastically changed from more content driven to more sales driven as we have been in a hot market for some time now and we cant keep seeing double-digit appreciation for forever. 

That's going to be commission only & be self driven by you. 

Asheville has a very large shortage of long term rentals, which is great for a landlord, however it has driven prices sky high any where near downtown.

I appreciate the thoughts and that’s certainly why I agree with the sentiment regarding AMU wealth advisors and their conflicts of interest.I should also say that this isn’t being driven by me but as a compromise with my significant other.

Don't ask an agent to show you anything you haven't already physically driven to and at least inspected from the outside.2.
