@Tris Wils Have you considered renting out the property for events?

If they host an event, get more people to come and/or get involved and help run it.

I don't see any events on Meetup or the events section on BP so I thought I would reach out on the forums.

I have also been working in the Self-Directed IRA/401(k) industry since 2008, so I am happy to answer any questions that you might have, thanks!

Any major damages, they can get after the movers.One plus in this arrangement is I have spare fridges in the event one goes bad, either mine or the tenants.

After I gain experience I intend on becoming a contributor myself to help the next set of newbies coming up in this industry. 

It's like a handbook for the industry.

You could also consider working at some kind of real estate brokerage or working for a real estate small business owner, that'll get you exposure to the real estate business and experience in the industry specifically.There's nothing wrong with, say, selling appliances retail, but I think your time would be better spent working for a small company and getting a ton of exposure to real estate.

Sometimes, I have to use industry standards for expenses, including market standards.
