She is a broker and has an agent working for her, also these people are investors and have the local RE investor group, who literally learned or honed his skills on the job with their help.It seems that if you get your salesperson license you just may like the interaction since you come from an industry that dealt face to face with people, albeit on a short term case.Good luck...

Seemed okay to me.

My husband says one months rent for a pet deposit, but that seems like people would balk!

I've looked into house hacking, multifamily BRRR, fix and flips, and I can't seem to get the numbers to work in any of them.

Seems you have a lot going on and are heading in the right directions very exciting.

The numbers seem good so far but you need to include a lot more info to get good answers here.

Lot's of people seem to be predicting a market slow down sometime soon in the Bay Area, so take that into consideration!

Most people seem to avoid the conversation about all the Real Estate risk takers that played the biggest part in the housing crisis.A few years before the bubble burst I was encountering real estate investors, house flippers, and buy-and-hold participants everywhere I went, my waitress at The Cheesecake Factory, the two McDonalds employees talking deals on their lunch break, the clerk at the grocery store, everyone everywhere appeared to be a real estate investor in one form or another getting a piece of the housing boom.The underlining problem I noticed was during the rush to get into the RE industry most of the people capitalizing in the industry never learned the basics of RE investing and were simply doing what their friends, neighbors, coworkers, or online postings told them to do to get a piece of the pie.

Right now you seem to be bewildered by the whole business.

This seemed like NONSENSE so I looked for alternatives.
