RE Agent looking for investors to work with
Hi BP Family! So I have been learning about investing for a while and bought my first investment property (house hacking) to live rent free.
Currently at this time I want to build up capital in order to invest more. I figured since I have my RE License and I enjoy the industry I can make money to build up my capital and also get experience while I’m at it.
I am interested in finding investor clients to work with to assist them as their agent. I found a few articles on how investors can find agents but I’m looking to find investors that are trying to work with an agent.
Any advice/tools/resources available for me to figure that out?
Thank you in advance for your feedback! 🤗
@Georgia Bryant congrats on your achievement. Finding investors will be easy for you that will come in time but if you are trying to improve as a REA i say read any and everything written by @David Greene he is an excellent agent as well as investor. I would say he is the great hybrid of REA and investor.
Hey @Georgia Bryant - great question!
@Anthony W. is absolutely correct, @David Greene is a wealth of knowledge and he talks a lot about this on the BP podcast.
You're in the right place to find all the investor clients you could ever want. BP has close to 1.5 million users right now, and if you do a local search, I bet a bunch of them are in your area.
a few tips:
1. find the folks that are the most active on BP in your area and take them out to lunch. Find out what kind of deals they're looking for and then start hunting!
2. be active on the forums: maybe informative posts about your market, welcoming newbies, answering questions, etc...
3. attend local investor meetups and repeat step 1 with the folks you meet.
4. Don't limit yourself to the MLS, you can offer far more to your investor clients if you're looking at off market deals from wholesalers, fsbo's, auction properties, etc...
Hope that's helpful - all the best!
