Let the numbers help dictate where you invest and then find a team to help realize that business plan. 

I would say getting a team of contractors together is one of the first big steps to going out on your own, especially as an agent. 

However, when I see what I consider an inexperienced team try to raise funds last summer on one portal (and fail) pop up on yet another portal nine months later, with the same "experienced sponsor" mantra, something is amiss.Don't get me wrong, I think there is a need for CF and it will continue to grow and offer opportunities, but what you said rings very true. 

The best way to learn what sells in a specific area is to team up with a local Realtor.

Thank you as this piece of the team seems vital.Sean O'Rourke

Great stuff here.Then, start assembling your team.

However, we always want to ensure our terms are transparent and I will share your feedback with our team here.

(With a full time job I'm going to be heavily reliant on a team of professionals to assist - Prop Mgr, Contractor etc)Thanks!

Please note that I have been working with the team at Ohio Cashflow after their purchase, rehab, and sale of Loxely.
