REI is an ever changing landscape and you're chances for success are greater when you learn from and hear from others who have the experience.

I hoping this role will help me get my feet wet in the industry and give me a chance to learn the ropes while building valuable connections.

For every ONE PERCENT that cap rates move against BAM they have to improve NOI by $6,000,000 just to BREAK EVEN on the property value.

I would appreciate any advice on what I should look out for or a chance for a mentor to talk through opportunities with.

For those who missed the initial buzz, the delay could provide a second chance to enter the market before real estate prices surge when the plant eventually opens.

Quote from @Robert Gunn: I would also be very interested in hearing student or JV experiences with Pete and his program.I stumbled upon him by chance and for fun (I've been investing in land for years) signed up for his "free" course, which he promises after he pitches his $499/mo software system (which is basically an overpriced CRM) and then after the first "Level" in the course, you are directed to a pay page to access the rest of the "free" course.  

Buying in those areas makes more sense for STRs as the municipalities rely on the revenue.Less chance of a lot of regulation.

I'd go ahead and list it.There are many past posts on how to improve your search list placement such as making frequent changes to listing and updating pictures.

For example, if a property is clearly a rental, does that typically have a higher chance of success?

I'm 60 so don't want to take the chances that I would if I was 30.
