Hey Jacob,

As an agent, the name of the game is coverage right now on both sides.

We've got free educational content coming out every day with larger monthly recaps and classes every month. We make sure our clients are followed up with and set up with a broker to really dive into their goals and desires when entering real estate as an asset class. Another way to get in contact with investors is to utilize other agents in your market, if you see a flip listed on the MLS reach out to the broker and have a conversation with them. Was it their project, an investor? If you tie up a deal and send it to the agent, will they send it along to the investor? Things like that!

As for properties we're doing outbounds based on lists from title companies, communicating with local wholesalers and maintaining relationships with other agents to get our deal flow through the door. We're going into a phase where we as the agents need to take additional measures to make our clients comfortable and confident in the investment decisions that they're making. Going forward sales are going to be relationship and analysis based as opposed to the more speculative profit-based decision-making that we've been seeing.

Hope this helps a little, best of luck!
