When you're a newbie the only thing you can really offer is sweat equity or work as an employee in a real estate profession to cultivate your skill.

Cultivating fair and trustworthy relationships will certainly define you and your future successes in the real estate arena.

It takes time and effort to cultivate those relationships.Also be aware that private money lenders are going to want high single digit returns.

To generate deal flow, you need to cultivate relationships with brokers and, if possible, with other owners as well.  

Mine does, but I've cultivated that relationship over years. 

Joshua Dorkin and his team have cultivated an awesome environment to network and exchange ideas.In the next 12 months we will hire a few full time people to manage the acquisition in a few other Houston sub markets.

To me direct mail really is a game of cultivation of the leads.

I guess I'm still sort of a newbie, but I think learning how to say "no" or "I'll think about it and get back to you", rather than making promises you can't keep--whether to tenants, sellers, or whomever--is a good skill to cultivate.

., for one getting started, i would keep important things like cultivating broker relationships, deal analysis/underwriting, business plan writing ;-) close to my chest.

I just started my own LLC and in wondering where is the best place to cultivate it.
