But, managing a home or deciding to buy a home has multiple dimensions to it, and the screen size and the ability to see multiple things is limited with mobile apps.

The only way I see future growth is to bring back jobs to America.

I just hired a contractor to handle all my maintenance so I can focus on growth.

Since my research abilities are limited to CA for the purposes of vacant land... someone want to help with this?

As the manager you will have to put some controls in place to give you the ability to know what is purchased and where it stored, etc.

If they insist on denying you the ability to speak, I might insist on that board member or members removal and start a petition.

Guess I could tell you, it's 2 months, 12 days, 16 hours and 42 mintues to cash my check......lol, that doesn't tell you anything really and to say "average" that's a moving target as it depends on so many factors, your market supply and demand, interest rates, scope of projects, time of year, weather, who you know and their ability to buy.

I definitely think CIAS is worth more than other typical designations that don't add any value to your professional growth. $500 is decent for the amount of information they give you plus monthly updates on the latest industry news and marketing templates.

There are very skilled wholesalers who market their mentoring abilities nationally and I also don't know how important current knowledge of the mentee's market is.What might I be overlooking, and how important is local market knowledge or having the mentor have a financial state in each deal in order to sustain their attention and availability?

Maybe later in the game when I'm more comfortable with my abilities would I consider pooling in other investors.
