@Jay Hinrichs Spencer is just on this site to promote himself and his company.

You may not be able to sell right away, but once you have your license, you can work it out to get referral fees from your boss.

Let's promote an environment of networking and mentoring that cost us nothing and karma will reward you. 

Does anyone has a property management company in the Dallas Fort Worth area that could refer to me?Thanks!

Bonus points for any referrals that I can use here in San Diego!

There are proposals in US Congress to eliminate the IRS Section 1031 Tax Free Exchanges, which have been in the tax cade since 1924.http://www.realtor.org/news-releases/2015/07/nar-survey-finds-like-kind-exchanges-promote-job-economic-growth

I'm a big fan of transparency - if you're new, or don't have the answers: just tell me that, and let me make an educated decision based on my own understanding/expertise about whether I want to move forward or not (for investors who are very experienced, and you're bringing a good deal, being new or not knowing all the answers shouldn't be a show stopper; for new investors, they may prefer a pass - but wouldn't you rather build a reputation as an honest keen provider who will get many referrals, even if that investor passed?)

If one of the tenants ends up being good and they want to refer you a friend or family member for the adjacent unit then I might consider the referral before advertising the other unit again.

We have time to assess and cherry pick.Denny,I would encourage you to develop a referral relationship with this guy because he is a professional in the industry and may come across some deals that could help you. 

He knew about business, legal issues, tax issues, marketing, sales, promotion, networking, and most importantly he knew about people (psychology).The first thing he did was tell me that I have two ears and one mouth, and I should listen more than I talk.Second thing he did was have me read "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie.Then he taught me how to set appointments with home sellers, go out to their home, and write up a "letter of intent to purchase or lease".He said to me, "your job is to bring me potential home sellers who will consider a creative offer."
