Side note, I'm on my way to get my Real Estate License, just passed the exam and starting the interview process with different companies hoping to find the right one .

I started my journey in a small town in Nebraska, flipping houses and learning the ropes through hands-on experience.

Start a new service?

I just started up with them, and I am wondering if I will make even one deal.  

If they put up any sort of resistance, that could be a cue to start digging a little deeper and documenting a bit more thoroughly (hence the doorbell camera coverage tip I put first - installing the cameras right away and then having the new lease conversation with the tenants afterward is very easy to frame as "I'm just a new owner putting some TLC into the property and doing my due diligence on the leases/tenants"; talking to your residents first, finding out they have extra people living there who aren't on the lease, and then installing cameras around the property could set you up for a very adversarial relationship with your inherited tenants). 

Starting so young is one of the best things you can do, but so is hanging out in the right groups with people that have similar goals.

Shaking hands across a desk is great, but so many CPAs are set up to serve you virtually, that finding one who is a perfect match for you may be easier than you think.Best of luck to you.

Best of luck starting out. 

A lot of people with growing portfolios start to look at a true property management software.

The appraisal isn’t in our hands.
