Moving Your REI Business To A New Market

This is an article about a couple who moved from North Carolina to Jacksonville, Florida. It was a big move for them and not easy at first but they are in the real estate business and Florida is one of the top real estate markets in the country. They had very few friends in the area but they are being very proactive in attending REIA meetings and joining the real estate investors association. Besides their friends that helped showed them the ropes, they learned a lot from attending these functions. They have tons of business cards that they will forever use for contacts and help. A lot of the people they have met have been very helpful and always picking up the phone when the couple has questions. They know a lot about vendors to contractors to title companies and everything else. The couple is working hard and building their dream team for their business. The couple gives their advice to their readers who may also have a real estate business that it may be overwhelming to make a move for your business but it is well worth it. Stick to a schedule and attend to as many meetings as possible and you will no longer be the newbies.

Key Takeaways:

  • There is difficulty in moving for everyone in the family, customers and community.
  • Sometimes you have to take chances to become successful and earn high dividends.
  • It can be scary to make changes, especially later in life.

"Have we lost our minds?” we were asking ourselves for the first few weeks after we moved our business to new – and unfamiliar – territory.
