Where are you going to get the time to devote to a full and active mentoring program?

If I were smart, I would devote that same mentality to my business!  

Real Estate Wholesaling is not scamming.

could also be a scam. most typical - I will rent your house, but I am out of area right now, I will send you a MO for way more than you need, could you please send the difference to my interior designer (via Western Union) who will then decorate the place per my taste.watch out for the scammers

Such a scam.

Hire good people, treat them with respect, bring them cookies to the jobsite, offer praise when praise is due (contractors are not numbers people as much as they are "aesthetics"...they enjoy being able to do nice work), pay them on time, and you'll have a devoted team in no time.  

You have to devote a lot of time to build these relationships and there will be trial and error. 

If you aren't particularly active, it makes no sense to devote time and money to something which could be utilized elsewhere more efficiently.

Your PM sounds like a scam for them to make money with no real incentive to find good people.    

There’s a huge difference between a VACATION rental and a dude that can’t afford a hotel looking for a cheap bed while trying to score a chick at the local bar and bringing her back to the room in the house while telling her it’s his house and making a ton of noises while the people living next door are trying to sleep and they don’t get to leave town the next day to their next scam.
