The same article quoted, "...in the National Association of REALTORS®’ 2015 Member Safety Report, 12 percent of REALTORS® say they carry a gun in the field."

I am a Business Administration graduate of the University of Illinois am a licensed Illinois Real Estate Broker and licensed Community Association Manager.My background in building and developing gives me valuable expertise in maintaining high-quality properties while staying under budget.

We have a fading apartment association in our city, but so many of the new properties are owned by large corporations who build and manage their own properties. 

We listen to tenants but try to not take sides or play referee.To get a good starting version of a lease/agreement that meets the tenant landlord or your state, I'd join a local property owners association.  

I am currently finishing up my degree in Graphic Design, but I'm really interested in flipping homes and buying multifamily housing.

A purchase & sale agreement I usually make an offer on is just a contract approved for that purpose by the Georgia Association of realtors.

I graduated from college with a business degree that emphasized real estate.  

I started with my first househack: a duplex in 2005 that now rents for $950/ea, and in next years bought two more SFR that cashflow -> inspired by rich dad/poor dad reading and working construction while finishing an OPS degree at WWU.Operated a seasonal campground, self employed in the off season and just saving pennies like a mad-man while the family grew and happily had to feed more mouths.

You can also go to narpm.org (The National Association of Residential Property Manager) to get started.
