The hardest part is getting your first listing, especially with the current situation happening. \n\nBooks on selling are helpful. I found Chris Voss \u201cNever Split the Difference\u201d a fun read. Also \u201cSo Good They Can\u2019t Ignore You\u201d was motivating, but reading news articles on COVID19 and how it\u2019s impacting investors and being able to pass information on rent abatement, rent deferment, and force majeure will propel you right now. Whether you pick multi family or net lease, this phase will be about building relationships and the best way to do that is to connect with people and offer as much value for free as possible. The rest you\u2019ll learn from your senior. \n\nI\u2019m curious if anyone else has any YouTube channels or books though.
