I never assume myself entitled to anything, and I never think my counterpart is entitled to or owed anything by me.

I'm just curious how I can best learn extra on the side while my client is being guided through the more tricky parts of the process by my senior counterpart.

Do you have any counterparts in the San Antonio area that would be able to help with Texas?

Agents from the commercial side are just not friendly in general versus their residential counter parts. 

The syndicators then charge fees that are much higher than their institutional counterparts such as 5% acquisition fees, asset management fees, disposition fees, etc...).Are you able to draw any parallels between the mortgage brokers/banks of 2008, Juul, and elderly scammers to the syndicators?

Make more money, buy more buildings, and repeat.These folks have compounded their wealth significantly faster than their W2 counterparts since they don't lose 30-50% to taxes each year.It’s a good strategy  

And I suspect urban centers will be better insulated against these shocks than their rural counterparts.

Imagine making millions of dollars over the course of your career and then having to pay 30-50% every year to uncle sam instead of compounding that cash over time.This is exactly what real estate professionals have learned to mitigate.To reduce their taxable income, they just buy a building every year, do a cost seg, and use depreciation to reduce their tax liability dramatically.Their personal wealth snowball grows much larger and much faster than their W2 counterparts who give most of their money back to the government each year.Following this strategy as a real estate professional is one of best ways to end up with a much larger net worth at the end of your career.

Yet he has fewer votes than his counterparts in this thread.

I really want to know what the crash will look like for them and their counterparts.
