Networking

[Jacob Plocinski]

Right now I’m just learning about real estate, either through reading books and BP articles/podcast. I’ve been researching my market and I am in the process of trying to find a real estate agent in my area with real estate investor experience (not as easy as I thought it would be). One of my main goals was to begin networking. Recently an old co-worker had said that his brother had some rental properties. I asked him a few more questions and turns out his brother is part of an urban redevelopment company in Harrisburg, PA, where I work. He was more than gracious to give me his contact information.

Cut to today, I’ve set up a meeting with him for some coffee in about 2 weeks. I have some very general questions to ask him. However, I can’t lie if I don’t feel a little intimidated meeting him. I’ve read through his bio on their website and his brother has offered some great information. Any advice is more than welcome.
