Hello BP,

I am a new investor and I’m looking for off market deals for my partner and I. I have found some but of course they need extensive work. I’m targeting properties that have been sitting on the market for at least 3 months so I’m hoping there isn’t much competition but some room for negotiations. My question is can I hire a general contractor to walk through the property and tell me what it needs before even getting it under contract (with the owners permission of course)??

Thanks in advance!

@Ola Dantis

Thanks that was super informative. I’m sure I’m just overthinking it 😀

@Ritch Bonisa

Wow you said a mouthful! We have some similarities there. I also prefer 1 on 1 and small groups. As I grow that will probably change. It’s crazy how growth does that. I’m glad you mentioned about making sure people are legit. Being a newbie sometimes people can feel that energy and Try and take advantage of you and that makes me hesitant.

I’m just trying to get a better understanding of RE social business culture.

Moving forward i will take the things you mentioned above as I create my pipeline.

@Chris Coleman

Great info! I never thought about the email follow up but I will do that. Do you also recommend occasional coffee meetups or something to continue to build on that relationship?

@Joel S.

I have money, but not ready to use it until I feel confident on the education side. I am still a “newbie” in the sense that I am at the point in RE development where I am beginning to reach out and build relationships. So I MIGHT have something to offer, I’m just trying to learn how to build those relationships. I know wholesalers, contractors, etc in my circle or reach.

With that being said, how do I present myself? I don’t want to come off as having nothing to offer, but I also don’t want to emphasize either.

@Kristian Conway

Thanks I will take a look at that book. I have been studying real estate for a couple of years now so I have plentyyyyy to talk about with someone. It’s just those initial conversations that can be frightening! I’m also sure I won’t be the only introvert in there.

Good morning BP!

I am looking to purchase my first owner occupied multi family in February 2020. Right now I am working on gathering my team together. Reaching out to agents, getting contractor prices, looking for lenders, looking for attorneys, etc. I would like to network more with people and build relationships further than just my team like partnerships and stuff....but I’m having trouble being that I am introverted. I may be overthinking this but that’s apart of the job(sarcasm) of being introverted.

I will be going to my first meet up for real estate investors in my area this weekend. My question is how do you go about building those relationships that turn into potential partnerships, etc? Do we become friends first and then I mention partnering with you? Do I mention it as early as the first initial conversation? How do I know if the business relationship vibe is there? What do I look for generally when looking for a partner?

Any suggestions will be helpful!

Signed, an introvert
