Be sure to be as active and engaging as possible.

If you plan to engage a PM firm, hire them now and they should be willing to assign their contractors.

What is the nature of your Real Estate engagement. 

I highly recommend anyone thinking about or currently engaging in STR or VR markets in NC read and understand this NC Law Review document.

Just be careful, depending on how this person is raising funds you might be under 506 law you may want to consult with a securities lawyer before engaging

However, your questions I will engage briefly.GRM’s do not get used by myself or others I know to purchase real estate.

Everything else under the sun, yup I need to be careful not to engage in unlawful housing discrimination.

You need someone that clicks with you personally before engaging in a mentor/mentee relationship with the dedication and stress that may be involved.Where to find a mentorStart by looking within your existing network.

@Derick Bonsu and @Preetika Sidhu I have got a summary and link to the city code here: https://hostwannabe.com/annapo...In short, it's true that there is a real limitation right now: max of one STR license per person and must be a city resident OR engage a local property manager.
