Thank you so much for sharing this!

You'll definitely need more time to get things processed.

I know that I will need a good realtor on my team that understands not just the market but the real estate investment industry itself.

Make sense with our need for inventory nationally, but this is also very market dependent.     

Larger brokerages sometimes are in need of administrative work, which could earn you a steady income while also getting exposure to the field. 

Much cheaper to keep it nice and cool.

Quote from @Dereck Olson: Hi Nicholas,  Just a thought from the possible tenant's perspective, but filling out a prequalification form and/or providing personal information before they have even seen a place and know if they will be interested in living in the property might be a bit too much to ask. 

Now, you need to figure out how to find deals and pay for them.

So far, I haven't had much luck. 

It is often much lower than rent O meter because rent O meter is pulling data from the advertised price, not the rented price.
