There is some time involved also in waiting for the background check and it is largely a process you have to weed through on your own as there isn't much written on it.I would recommend talking to someone like @Daniel Anshus to see if you can work some sort of deal for handling both transactions. 

-It provides a barrier to entry against casual trespass-It gives a sense of security to the customer-It allows the owner to deny entry to owing accounts -It can be keypad operated for only valid tenants or time operated for access hours; either way it minimizes the need for staff involvement-It allows "tracking" of tenant access to identify trouble patterns.When I first started this current development, I had an automatic gate before I had any actual tenants

I would be handling everything involved with closing the deal, hiring management, and increasing NOI.

@Jasmine Russell That’s a tricky one lol the real answer is it depends(annoying I know)… When I first got started I had 0 experience but had done a ton of research, I still lost 100k on my first deal (lol) but I used that painful lesson on my pitches to tell future partners what I learned and didn’t give upit was also a raw land permitting play and I payed back the investor every penny I owed which helped my brand- Now, for those that know me I don’t need to go over my portfolio, what I’ve done etc because my reputation precedes me however, when I’m in a scramble and need funding for a deal and advertising it to the world and talking to strangers I’m absolutely going over my track record so they feel comfortable that I know what I’m doing and if I don’t specialize in a particular niche I get someone on my team and involved in the deal who’s and expert there and have them on the calls or at the very least their website or somethingI definitely am a fan of fake it till you make it but if you’re the one putting capital into a deal maker, check, double check and triple check everything they tell you and do your own DD

I am the agent involved.

We can come to an agreement in terms of how long this arrange would be and what is involved.

I’d prefer to not be actively involved with the management but am open to it I suppose.

If it were me, once I had my financing strategies in order, I'd look for a realtor that is also a proven investor themselves and understands numbers and all financing options....people I recommend in our market are Marcus Auerbach, Homestead Realty, Premier Point Realty & Modern Milwaukey Realty all brokers who are also successful local investors.....as it pertains to real estate investing, having a realtor that is skilled in investing is the same as choosing an accountant because if you're going to be involved in real estate, you definitely should have an accountant who specializes in real estate investing and not just landlord investing--ALL aspects of investing from rentals, flipping, self directed/SoloK, structuring etc---they should love real estate as much as you:) I was just involved in a deal on a Cudahy duplex house hack where the investor used FHA financing from Lower.com and I was quite impressed with them.

Eventually I hope to get involved with real estate investments.

I know every partnership is unique and it really just depends on the two parties involved, but having the general opinions of other investors will help us to understand more about what we should or should not expect.
