Maybe because I'm in Los Angeles, I don't view cash flow as an absolute essential, at least not right out the gate.

Most small towns i have rentals in, I am viewed as the landlord that has the "nicest" properties in town(No granite here as they love the tile counters and the $3 backsplash)  However, in upscale areas I would consider having the worst properties at the bottom dollar price

I still view myself as a newbie and honestly, I hope to always have the newbie mindset in regards to continuous learning and the hunger to succeed.

@Luis De JesusThis is a state-by-state case as there are different laws on how one can market property.If you are marketing a property and you don't have the title then you can be viewed as brokering real estate without a license.
