I am putting together a pro forma for a new construction commercial building, and I have not hired an agent for the pre-leasing tenants.

all factors to account for....perhaps consider hiring someone experienced to hold your hand.

I am 25, married with two kids, and a Staff Sergeant in the United States Air Force.

) WOW.......I was amazed at how friendly people were (and nosy) and how willing to chat with me.I listed and sold a property that is now the Fallston Shopping center on Belair Road, lots in Bel Air, commercial properties on Mountain Road (Maryland) and a few small subdivisions to mention a few.While fellow agents sat in the office (playing politics, and waiting for the phone to ring while on floor duty, I was out there walking and talking and getting good exercise, and getting to know people and asking my simple questions and getting leads).

I provide a complete acquisition and management service, covering the following.Pre-purchase inspections to determine repair/upgrades needed.Coordinating renovations and preventative maintenance.Tenant screening, writing leases, rent collection.Payment processing to vendors for repairs & routine property maintenance such as air conditioning, pest control and lawn care.  

After getting married and adopting a newborn baby, I recognized the need for the health and life insurance benefits of a full-time position and hired on with Tandem Computers in 1992 making a six-figure salary.

So if you are working and can't take them as they come, I would suggest hiring someone from like Odesk or Freelancer who can take incoming calls for you.

Most don't know enough to ask about sq. footage (but they can tell when they walk thru the property).Big items like garages, included washer/dryer, central air/heat will command more money.  

In other words, can my IRA hire my broker (with me as the agent) to purchase or sell real estate held by my IRA?
