If you are interested, please contact me directly to discuss.Valley Agent Criteria:A self starter, but not someone who is ambitious enough to go out on their own… Knowledge of SF Valley and Thousand Oaks/Simi Valley (member of SoCal board) Someone who understands the rental market (acquiring low price properties that demand high rents) Experience with Winforms and MLS Investment property experience Computer savvy Home office with fax, email and a windows operating system, Outlook (not MAC) Someone with an existing book of potential clients Someone who knows the neighborhoods intimately in the SF Valley and Conejo Valley

Creedog: I think the best way for you to start is not by focusing in REI straight away, but to read self help/motivational books like Rich Dad Poor Dad, Think and Grow Rich, etc.

I am a self-motivated person and I am confident that I will be a happier person being my own boss and avoiding the dreaded 9-5.My goal is to learn as much as I can right now, work on setting up a great team in my area to work with, and get started asap.Any advice/encouragement is appreciated!!!!

Check with your building department before you start the work.Code covers what size to use for what application.
