I'm dedicating the first quarter of 2015 to literally finishing up my education (not that I've learned everything, just need to pick a time to be in action and not just thinking), building a written business plan, organizing myself (tools, resources, etc) so I am ready to get into action the 2nd quarter of the year.So reading the chapter in Ultimate Beginner's guide to REI for building a business plan, there is a section for exit strategies.

(PM company, local contact and/or local realtor, title company, etc.)3) Do you have an infrastructure already set up for rental properties (lender you work with for purchases, bank account(s) dedicated for your business, etc.)Just a few things to throw out there.

It seems it doesn't matter the industry, the hardwork, relationships built, dedication to excellence and kindness shown to other people is the key.Let me know if there is anything we can do to help you out.

I went from zero to sixty thanks to this website, and I'm sure that you will too if you stay dedicated to it.

Definitely listen to the pod casts here on BP.Keep in mind that real estate takes time, dedication and patience, which it sound like you got it.  

Dedication.

I'm going to want to minimize contact points as much as I can while not hiring a dedicated property manager.

Perhaps set up a dedicated phone line (Google Voice, perhaps) that has a voicemail giving all the info.

Make sure the person clarifies that this is in their personal home, not a dedicated rental property (at least that's how I've read the situation to be, right?).

@John HeinDo I understand that you plan on dedicating yourself to real estate full time?
