First Steps---- LLC???

Crystal S.

I am a beginner investor and I am in the process of heavily marketing for motivated sellers. I figured this would be a good starting point for myself. What are the next necessary steps before purchasing my first property?

Should I have an LLC in place? Begin listing and filing contract forms? Website?

Any other tips would be so great!

Thanks!

IMO your One Thing right now is getting your first deal. Put all your energy in that - market, network, view properties. Anything else you try to do will keep you from the most important step to make yourself successful. To put things in perspective - for my business I need to make 20-30 offers a month to make one acquisition a month. That requires a lot of marketing and networking. An an LLC is very important, but acquisitions are more important. Take massive action and create your own luck!! -Bob
