It is a great place to really network and find folks you need for your team - professionals and jv partners - I want to address the last bit as I work for a loan brokering company.

I have the following basic list and am looking for guidance on who else should add to that list:* CPA / Accountant* Real Estate Attorney* Real Estate Agent* Insurance Agent* Mortgage Broker(s) / Lender(s)I realize that depending on the type of real estate investment I might need more in my team (e.g. if I am rehabbing, I need a General Contractor etc.)Who else would you recommend I add to the above list at an absolute minimum? 

Please note that most cap rates that brokers give to you, omit pertinent costs. 

Are there any insurance brokers licensed in California on here?

. -- I am a real estate broker.

@Lana Sha I'm originally from Redding, and have family there, in fact my daughter is a very active Broker in Redding.

Meeting a real person and evaluating your knowledge and expertise face to face goes a lot further than a black and white loan application.I also have a national broker that I work with that has several products that work well with my clients.

the turn key marketers  ( just think as real estate brokers nothing more nothing less)  their clients are the guys and gals that live in the market buy the homes that need rehab and then resell.. they are flippers.. then many will have in house management which makes them " turnkey "  the real risk as Ivan is talking about is buying low end C class.. for most out of state investors over time the expense's create an investment that maybe you would not have made... where as A and B class tend to run fine in any city you buy them in or anyone you buy them from... you can go right on MLS and buy them.. 

I think the customer experience using these companies will vary widely depending on the specific crew/ store/ location of course. 

Thankfully, I found a broker who is willing to help me round up distressed homes (fixer upper, TLC types) near the Denver area and its surrounding suburbs/outskirts.
