Embracing the investor mindset is crucial for anyone venturing into real estate.

You'll likely find many in this community willing to share their knowledge, especially with a mutual benefit like that.Start by reaching out to local real estate investment groups or networking events in DFW, as well as connecting with folks here on BiggerPockets who have experience in your target market.

I just passed my real estate exam, and now it's time to find a broker to hang my license with.

And the real mechanics underneath are very complex, but no, you do not win this game.

Hello, I'm a student of real estate investing.

It’s usually the C/D property investors who are sensitive to late fees because they are often times running  business rather than investing in real estate where they have to nickel and dime the tenants to generate revenues.

If you are worried about fees and occupancy rates, I would suggest flipping back and forth between traveling nurses.

Just starting my journey into real estate investing and looking forward to meeting and catching up with like minded people.

@Michael PetersRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

@Grant NashI have no experience in flipping/rehabbing and will attempt to analyze strictly on numbers.
