First Person to Meet as New Investor

[Derek Morrison]

As a new investor who hasn't done a deal, who is the first person I should talk to? An agent, a lawyer, a contractor, a lender, etc.? I don't want anyone to look at me and assume I'm wasting their time because I'm sure other people have done so before.

@Derek Morrison  Talking with attorneys, CPAs, contractors, lenders, etc. is putting the cart before the horse.  Take a direct path and find someone who is already successful doing what you want to be doing.  That's your starting point.  Get a deal done, then worry about the other stuff.  Keep it simple, Derek.
