@Alex GreenbergA lot depends on your skill set and interests.

I would like to invite anyone who wants to improve their negotiating skills to send me a direct message so we can arrange something and help each other be better negotiators. 

Does anyone know of an attorney in the Solano County, CA area that is skilled in filing cross-complains in relationship to a residential property purchased out of a sole survivorship trust?

This is highly dependent on your market and your skills as a Landlord.

They all require different skill sets.

Be careful who you partner with - best not to partner with a person who cannot put "skin in the game" - no matter what skills or other value they say they can bring to the table.

No one else can answer what YOU should do only what they would do in your shoes and the answer is highly personal and depends on so many factors (experience, knowledge, risk tolerance, age, passive vs active, available opportunities, skill set, goals, etc.).

Any trade will give you a good understand of construction plus you can barter your skills with other trades.  

I've got a lot to learn (negotiating skills, estimating repair costs, how to assign a contract, etc.) but for now I'm just looking for feedback on my plan at the big picture level.
