Hi everyone,My rental property is a SFH (class A) in a great neighborhood and in the coastal region of the Bay Area known for outdoor spaces, nature and great quality of life.

Maybe as an alternative, let the tenant know that they are welcome to buying those "drive like your kids live here" type of signs.  

Alternatively, gather the 100+ private lenders online and on bigger pockets and reach out to every one of them - that there is the hustle.Now, some of them will say No , some- maybe with very high interest rates, lucky enough you may a yes with stipulations and a fair to low interest rate .

The Sales Comparasion Approach should always be to provide support the the Income Approach due to the investment nature of the strip center.

While I'm happy to be here, naturally I don't know anyone in the industry.

The people who are willing to sell their house for pennies on the dollar are most of the time past the point of caring about the nature of the person helping them.

I thought the owner might be interested not only due to the energy savings, but also as an alternative to a very costly window replacement and to achieve higher rents.

Probably to be decently profitable we really needed 50 to 100 agents, so 35 was just the minimum to start an office.An alternative for you if you think you are or could be a great recruiter is to join a brokerage like Keller Williams, which will allow you to run your business inside of theirs.   

Alternatively, if you did a Syndication you could learn from the general partners the process and then be a GP on another one and share in the profits and maybe then even 1031 into a large complex of your own.

I wouldn't take on the risk for a 5 or 6% cash on cash return when there are much better alternatives.
