So in the case of me purchasing a property outright, even if I'm licensed, wouldn't I have the fiduciary duty to myself as the buyer, much like an buyer's agent would to their client in a regular real estate transaction?

But I don't like doing that since I want to attract a good client to rent to.

They have been really good and have a lot of real estate clients.

I do not have mentor to show me the ropes on how to properly sell and manage properties or more importantly be the best advocate for my clients.

*Their 'clients' don't know what they are doing.

When choosing a solo 401k provider, I recommend to prospective clients to read the following blog from my one of many blogs on Bigger Pockets. https://www.biggerpockets.com/blogs/3441/blog_post...

As a lender/seller he would have a very sensitive issue pursuing a deficit judgement given the current number of cases involving predatory lenders.

For me and my clients ! 

No agent with any sense expects every consultation to turn into a client, so don't feel bad that you may be wasting someone's time. 

We understand your concern of "voodoo" numbers, so we are obviously sensitive about it.Stick to good markets, and good neighborhoods, with great property management and you will be very pleased.Continued success!
