People First or Deal First?

Devin Danielson
Posted

Hi all,

I've been listening to the BP podcast for over 3 years now and I'm finally jumping in and starting the pre-approval process in the Minneapolis, MN market! 

My question is, did you guys find the team first or the deal first? (i.e contractor, handyman, property manager)

Thank you so much!

@Devin Danielson Great question, you need an investment-focused Realtor & Loan officer before a deal, but that's it.   After finding those two, your efforts should be 100% on finding a deal before you worry about contractors and handymen.   Your need for a PM will depend on if you plan to live in the property and your proximity to the property.
