(also consider is the basement tired/dark/creepy. if so brighten it up)The best thing you can do is be upfront about this setup. 

It tends to mirror some of the aesthetic around the place.Mixing old and new, light and dark, high-end and affordable/approachable tends to give a collected and lived-in space that feels really comfortable and unique.

If you’re still left in the dark, it’s reasonable to explore other management options.

Some states are cracking down on assigning contracts without a license, so consider working with or shadowing a licensed agent at first just to stay safe.Keep grinding.

What would really bolster my confidence would be finding another investor / mentor in our region that I could shadow throughout one of their deals / processes to see many of the ins and outs and various things I can run into. 

I know I am late to the game but is there anyone in the San Fernando Valley willing to let me shadow them for a couple months or offering a paid internship anywhere? 

my best advice is something like this:Find someone to shadow and watch them plan and implement things like marketing campaigns, seller intake and closing calls, appts, etc. 

It is dark, depressing, and gloomy.

I’m just looking for investors in Las Vegas who wouldn’t mind letting me observe how this really works whether it’s shadowing a showing, watching how deals are done, or just listening in on a few calls. 

After giving Alan Kirkham 5 months to right this wrong and come up with a fair resolution, we have been left in the dark with no set plans or expectations and no true point of contact, which is why we have decided to share our experience here.
