Tell Everyone!

[Carey Edmund]

Morning BP

I just wanted to take a sec to encourage everyone to tell everyone you are a real estate investor. I kept hearing the guest on the podcast say it so I decided to focus on that simple task. Since deciding to do that I have discovered that a really good friend of mine is heavily invested in real estate. I knew he had some investments in RE but I never knew the extent because it was a topic he never knew I was interested in so it never came up. Result...I have a very experienced resource to turn to and a mentor. I also found out today that a good friend of my best friend invests in RE on multiple continents. We are on a guys trip to celebrate the bday of our mutual friend and he happened to ask me what I do. I told him I pay my bills with restaurants but my job is investing in real estate. Without telling me what he did, he asked if this was a good time to buy with prices going up. I told him it's always a good time to buy if the deals right (I stole that from BP:)). He proceeded to tell me about the 5 rentals and three flips he's done so I now realize I am talking to an experienced investor. Then he tells me about the major land development he is doing in Brazil so I now thank God I listen to BP podcast because it gave me the confidence not run from the table because I am sooooo out of my league. Results...He connected me with his realtor who specializes in finding foreclosures for his clients. I also have another resource for questions and who knows where the relationship will go. All this came from telling everyone I meet that I am a real estate investor. Be proud of what you are doing for your future and your family and tell everyone because you never know who you are talking to.
