Are you looking for a partner to provide value other than capital to speed up your growth?

I invested into some real estate education as well (since I can write the cost off on my taxes anyway) to help me get up to speed on REI as I am a total newbie myself. 

Any suggestions / advice to speed up this process will be welcome.

An example would be a town fueled by a major construction project (a dam, pipeline, high speed train, etc.).

I'm not certain why you're considering going PRO, but your decision to go or not go won't speed the process up.The developer who built the app left our company and we've been working on a replacement.  

I'm good with that in that they have incentive to keep the places up to speed and I don't have to worry about it (I know some folks wouldn't be comfortable with that, but I am).I can certainly understand a property manager wanting to wait until a check clears the bank before they paid out any money.

Unfortunately, in the haste to get a project going, there's a temptation to gloss over things and then be frustrated later.Most investors will say they value reliability, speed and competence, but when it comes right down to it, they'll typically make decisions based on price, at least until they've gotten burned a couple of times.

This will not only help speed things up but it shows your agent and the prospective seller that you are a serious buyer and you have the capability to close the transaction.Try to narrow down what it is you want.
