At a minimum I'll eventually need Property ManagerCPARE AttorneyInsurance AgentNot sure if it changes the answer but I'm looking at a smaller medical office building with one tenant. 

Being an attorney and a broker you may have much to offer someone in the REI field.  

However, I wanted to work in a field with which I was comfortable, so I took a job at Lowe's Home Improvement for about five years. 

Since I love this field I probably will have way more than 10 houses lol.That why those questions in the beginning are so important.

Can I legally ask people to list all the medications they are on  as part of their rental application?

I would like to get to know some people up there that have a good reputation for managing properties too, though I will have to narrow down the playing field before I start I guess.Hi Richard, Yes I'll most likely be using Exeter for the 1031 QI.

Hello from sunny Florida, I am actively engaged in a solid career as an IT support manager at a fast moving medical services company and at this point in my life its time to start thinking about the next big thing.

Not only will my established and establishing connections help me in the field, but continuously working with both of these types of businesses will help me gain a better understanding of their specific financial statements and tax opportunities/implications.

Bren family, (Irvine Co), CBRE, among others as well as the medical institutions are aggressively going after land for expansions.The newest media darling is Anaheim in the Golden Triangle I think they call it.Google it, you'll see who you're up against.The Irvine company has even strayed outside OC and bought near Valencia.We just don't have much land left,......my .02

For us we are successful because we have a larger suburban based management operation that includes commercial and it allows us to use just one back office to maintain our non field costs across both sides.
