Hi Jasmine - happy to help promote if you like. I can also assist with viewing the deal from a seller's perspective. Many ETA's get this wrong and focus on the right things but at the wrong time. Thanks for the tag ^redacted

bETA is a great (highly selective) program for helping to get your search started -- even better if you are mid-way through your search. They have a fund with favorable terms, classes, group mentoring and 1-1 mentoring. Be aware they are serious and there is a real time commitment to get the most out of the program. I totally recommend!!! I was in the Twin Cities 2025 Cohort #9.
