I am currently an HR Analyst in Colorado looking to expand my knowledge and growth in the Real Estate market.

Give some information and knowledge and the benefits will come back to you tenfold.That would be in addition to starting a website, blog, craigslist ads, facebook posts, networking, telling all friends and family what you are doing, go to local meetings, code compliance lists, driving for $$, and a few others I cant think of right now.As mentioned above, you have to keep doing all of those consistently over and over.

@Michael Facchini - would you mind posting some details for general knowledge?

They are experts at determining the true value of the underlying asset.2. 

I'm looking for an agent that is not only experienced and knowledgeable with small multi-family apartments (4 units or less) but who also has their own portfolio of multi-family apartments in Madison.

Since there's a bunch of knowledgeable solar guys in here right now, and it kind of fits the topic, I think it might be appropriate to ask this question here.The solar panel installations that I've seen on Youtube, TV, etc that are retrofit - i.e. not put on when they're replacing a roof, which I've never seen - always shows them drilling bracket mounting holes straight through the asphalt shingles.

In your case, maybe offering a mentor a piece of the deal in exchange for his knowledge/expertise.  

He is a pretty seasoned and knowledgeable economist.He was chief economist at bear steamedYes people will not like him because of his belief in supply side economics.But he is more than just a tv personality, he does have significant experience

Next time you give advice, you might want make sure you have a have a little more knowledge about the matter than the original poster.. 

We are always happy to meet new people and pass along knowledge my husband and I have gained throughout the years.
