Will they support the full timers? 

What other platform offers 50+ hours of live virtual training each week plus the new agent mentorship program.KW has a big name for training too.And then there are smaller local / regional brokers that can offer a lot of hands on support.

I do plan on selling from time to time as a secondary source of income.Some of the things I'd rather have is:Little to no desk fee (I prefer to work remote)Low monthly brokerage feeGood support & mentoring when neededThanks!

If they are separated, be aware that income now needs to support two households.

@Joe SplitrockYour correct , i felt like it would be a red flag as well but I asked the engineering firm that did the cost seg a million times , the lady owns a bunch of parks and she said that’s all she does and they offer audit support if that came to be .

I have tried the the “support” email that only gets answered when somebody feels like it, and to no avail. 

Once they made me hire an engineer because a support beam had chipped paint.  

I’m in the process of closing on a single family home now, the numbers work as a long term rental but I’m going to try the vacation rental because I could 3x the monthly revenue and I think it’s in a market that will support it.

I can't comment on whether or not any of that will reverse but I will comment on is that as long as Chicago has the following it will always remain a place for commerce which then supports Real Estate.

Years ago there used to usually be a house right next to a church, called a parsonage, where a minister and his family would live free, supported by the church congregation.
