Quote from @Connor Chatlos: If your Broker is worth their salt, they will have an Independent Contractor Agreement with you that spells out responsibilities, commission splits, etc.

Advice comes from a very novice crypto investor so take it with a grain of salt

I have a Duplex that's performing poorly in north salt lake.

This is why its important to take what you read with a grain of salt and do your own due diligence. 

Take it with a big grain of salt - I saw a property tagged with HIGH RISK of HEAT due to a 200% increase of days over 100F in the next 10 years....going from ONE per year to ...drum roll...TWO days per year.

We typically cover lawn care, pool maintenance, and if they have a softener system - the salt required to maintain the system.

Listen to them but take what they say with a grain of salt.5.

The snow plowing/salting and common area lawn mowing were terrible the first half of the year.

If you have commercial experience and are an excellent asset manager (managing the property manager, driving revenue, reducing expenses,  managing GCs)You wont just provide value to a sponsorYou will be highly sought-after after by sponsorship groups.The ones worth their salt know how incredibly valuable a strong asset manager is (and how much work it takes)So if you can bring that skillset, I have a feeling it won't take long for you to find a sponsorship team. 

I have had this goal of buying my first duplex and have talked to real estate investors, realtors, lenders, appraisers and have been encouraged so much to where I am anxious to dive into this.Now that I am 18 I have absolutely no debt, a credit score of 727, I have 28k sitting in a certificate of deposit, a couple years of working consistently under my belt, I’ve also been investing in my Roth IRA, I feel very blessed to be in this situation.I am still in high school, I know it wouldn’t be smart to buy a house right now but something in me is so anxious to buy this house I know I have to have patience but I don’t know if I should start the process of getting pre approved, finding a good investor friendly realtor, lender, preparing my documents or if I should just wait.When analyzing deals in my market I have crystal clear real estate deal criteria my strategy is house hacking a duplex, price range of 500,000-600,00 in Salt lake, Utah!
