A GP who has done 10 personal deals in the small MF (5-50 units) space but was a grocery store manager for 7 years isn't the same as someone with 0 personal deals but who worked their way up as an asset manager at an institutional or bulge bracket firm for the same amount of time. 

Someone else mentioned CAI, this is the Community Association Institute, definitely go check them out, I think they can help lead you in the right direction
