Usually the type of work has to be dealing with the real estate itself, not just providing a service that is applied to a part of the house/building. 

I live in a community where half the people never lock their doors.

Proper has the most comprehensive coverage, but it is usually the most expensive. 

Everywhere I turn all I see are pitches for affordable housing and the same (not so) compelling arguments regurgitated by syndicators, capital raisers, brokers etc. for the investment strategy....strong returns...lower volatility....supply (huh?)

I normally pick and choose the events I go to based on what will be discussed. 

why not have that hard talk with your current manager to understand the reasons for not getting the result you want?

The best advice I can give you for studying for you license is to voice record yourself reading questions and answers on notes cards.

The deal will leave the seller at your sons mercy for decades (the life of the loan).

I’m a licensed realtor, an investor in the making, and someone who believes in making something out of nothing.I started in wholesaling before getting my license, and now I’m grinding to become a consistent producer while positioning myself to rebuild as an investor.

I had zero knowledge when I started, now I'm a full time investor enjoying life, so yes of course I can say it's real :)
