Working with REI takes highly specialized knowledge that it takes a couple years to develop.I'd suggest the other direction.

I need more experience and knowledge before taking too many risks :)@Kristen Ray Thanks for the offer!

I brought a knowledge of a small town most have never heard of and the ability to balance both the buyer and the seller's needs.

Absolutely willing to lend my services and knowledge in plumbing for guidance/mentorship.

Keep in mind that the seller is going to try to get out from the property for a reason, just ask a question and listen, if he's motivated enough they will reveal more than needed OR they will not have enough selling points which could be a bad thing. ie; vacancy rates (leads to knowledge about the area or housing issues the tenants had), water usage (potential plumbing issues), appliances held in the units (leads to how old the electrical is in the home) CHECK IF THE OUTLETS ARE GROUNDED !!! 

Then take that knowledge and branch out.
