Sadly we found them to be incredibly incompetent, less than honest when confronted and have nickel and dimed us even after we sold the property to get away from them.  

Rent can be incredible per room.

It's incredible to see how much is going on.

I have reworked my numbers and found how to produce greater cash flow at the same property, vice appreciation (thank you!).

Yes, BP is likely advertising but unless you are posting listings or soliciting business in the Marketplace the "Department's rules on advertising" specifically provide an exemption for communications which do not relate to specific property.With respect to implied agency -- since you see "possible agency being created every day" on the BP forums, please produce a single communication example that could even arguably result in a fiduciary relationship being established.

Capital expenditure can be tricky because it is relative to the income a given property may produce.

You've listed many roadblocks.If I were you, I'd: #1 use a portion to fund my emergency fund (if I didn't have one); #2 payoff as much of my high interest, non income producing debt as I could since the cost of that debt wrecks havoc on current income.

Get a commitment that you can shadow a high-producing agent - somebody with a lot of experience.Find out who will be available and when for the questions that will come up. 

Packed with wisdom, humor, and incredible insight, this show will leave you pumped up and ready to choose wealth.

Welcome Shawn, I am pretty new to the site as well but have been finding it incredibly valuable.
