Finding Accredited Investors

Hello My Wealth Building Friends! 

I love Real Estate. SO much that I want everyone to have a chance to invest in it. I'm on a path of building a network of accredited investors who are interested in passive returns by having real estate in their portfolio. But here's my question...I've met so many investors who are "Hands On" investors. I know flippers, wholesalers, landlords, self storage owners, etc. But where are those people who have money to invest and want it in real estate without having to change a lightbulb or deal with contractors?


Where would you go to network with accredited investors who are interested in passive returns?  I have no doubt the BP community will fill this thread with brilliant ideas. Wishing you all the best in your endeavors.

    Hi Matt,

    You have some places to pick from--don't try to Gold Mine in a Salt Field.

    Over $1 Million filers. https://www.bizjournals.com/charlotte/news/2018/01/24/which-north-carolina-county-has-the-most-residents.html

    Get invited to a country club, or join one.

    Country Clubs: https://www.google.com/maps/search/Greensboro,+NC+coountry+vlub/@36.0735524,-79.8799351,12z/data=!3m1!4b1

    Eat in expensive places.

    5 star resturants: https://www.google.com/maps/search/Greensboro,+NC+5+star+resturants/@36.0734709,-79.8799353,12z/data=!3m1!4b1

    Live in a better zip code or spend leisure time there.

    Your outfit "CRU" might have a doners list. Meeting the BIG doners and Medium Doners might be fruitful (The process will be less complicated if everyone is living in the same state).

    If someone is driving one of these, you can assume they have money vs just high income.

    It's a Bentley Convertible, the tops are usually Blue, or Burgundy, grey or tan.

    Talk to Dentists and MD's.

    Dress to blend in where you go, don't wear old worn out Dickies to the Prom so to speak.

    Then just talk to people and make business friends with them.

    Good Luck!
