I'm getting ready to establish an online presence (in a new industry being REI, I am currently know for my mad skills selling Lexus-www.she-sells-lexus.com) but this time for my REI business.  

As a Realtor and former analyst, I'm putting my experience and research skills to use looking for the right property as well as sorting out the early stages of funding my/our first project. 

Armando finds 4 mentors who agree to mentor him.Conveniently, each of the 4 mentors had 1 special skill.1 was good at finding the deals.1 was good at funding the deals.1 was good at rehabbing the deals.1 was good at selling the deals.After Armando learned the business from his 4 mentors he moved his family out of the garage to San Antonio with only $1,000 to his name.Now in San Antonio with only $1,000 to his name Armando buys 3 things.A pre-paid cellphone.Business cards from Vista Print.A briefcase.Armed with these 3 items & the skills from his 4 mentors Armando finds a great deal.

I love BP posts on screening, they help you test your screening skills and it is always interesting what people see and do not see.

At the time of purchase, Fort Drum was rapidly expanding and the entire area had a severe housing shortage.

You will learn about different ways people have made a living in real estate that may add ideas and new skills to your arsenal.

And from what I seen Vegas does have a shortage so I'm sure if I were to find a good house it would go quick...

I need advice from anyone with mad marketing or copywriting skills.

I used a simple Excel spreadsheet for our first few properties, and then our accountant told us to find someone more skilled in multiple rentals than she was.
