I was wondering if there are any "rules of thumb" or "staples" that are used in the industry to conservatively evaluate a properties expenses and other fees, I know these numbers will range depending on the deal and the region but if that's the case, what have other investors done in the past to get the best numbers, who do I reach out to? 

I was born a self starter and am very passionate about the real estate industry.

Hello Everyone,I am looking to break into the real estate industry.

Im a Real Estate Virtual Assistant (REVA) whose been working in the industry for over 10 years.

Happy to set up a time to learn more about your goals in the real estate industry and network.

I'm in the logistics industry and most people have no idea how it is.The key thing is - how to get people to WANT to work with you.

Saturday, November 5th I signed up for a Homeownership Program, hopefully that class will be a crash course in the industry jargon, as well as giving me more information.

If you ever want to meet up and/or bounce ideas about this great industry, let me know.Kind regards,Erik Oquendo
