Why do so many RE investors want to share their knowledge?

[Rachel Gill]

Why do you think so many RE investors are willing to share their knowledge with newbies and other investors? I've dabbled in a few other businesses before getting started in RE and every time I would ask a more seasoned/experienced professional in those fields for advice or guidance, it seemed as though they didn't want to share their "secrets". Don't get me wrong, I'm so appreciative that the RE community is different, but why do you think that is?

I love that question!  

I personally give back and do my podcast and blog because I remember EXACTLY what it was like when I started out 18 years ago.  

My original broker told me "Here's your desk, here's your phone, here's the phonebook, you're on your own."

I had to learn everything from the ground up.  I swore to myself that if I ever got in the position to help someone else so they wouldn't have to do it, I would.  

Today, due to technology, I can share my passion for teaching, technology, and real estate. I can share my knowledge, experience, and interviews with others to people I will probably never meet, yet will benefit from my experience.

To me, as a 45 year old guy, knowing that my YouTube videos, and blogs, and podcasts will most likely survive much longer than I will, that gives me a sense of "fulfilling that promise."

Thanks for that insightful question!

Have a Powerful Sales Day!
