How to convince a real estate investor to work with him as an assistant?

I am in need of assistance.

A lot of emotion gets involved and the HOA wants the people out.Depending on the property condition, the HOA could foreclose then rent out the place until the bank can get around to foreclosing.I have assisted quite a few HOAs in the past who have foreclosed not having a complete understanding from their attorney about what happens to the 1st mortgage.

You can do a simple web search to find brokerage firms that will hang your license for a flat fee verse a % of every sale/purchase but you won't get much assistance from them and I am not sure exactly how "legal" all that is.Other things to consider, 1) there is a fee to have access to and be able to list on the MLS, 2) I think the state requires you to carry or it would be a very good idea to carry Errors and Omissions insurance commonly called E&O insurance 3) if you plan to tour properties, you will need to get those electronic keys that agents have and I am guessing there is an annual fee associated with that.Those are the big ones I can think of off the top of my head.

@Troy Whitney made some valid points about investing outside of your market if you are seeking to maximize your investments. 

I am on the board of two self managed HOA's (Lakeview /Wicker Park) and need assistance dealing with two separate issues:  #1 Noise disturbance in commercial space  #2 VERY delinquent assessments by a single owner Ive attempted to engage two firms already but somehow these issues seem to not be attractive to represent. 

You see an opportunity and are seeking the right way to do it.

We travel, take daily walks together, attend church, assist at the Phoenix mission, garden, hike, keep on on the latest issues, have lunches and dinners with friends, attend family events and sit and stare at the stars.
