It has taken me time and I am ok with building long term wealth vs spendable dollars today.

The goal is to start building long term relationship with, so any names would be appreciated. 

I know it’s going to take a lot of digging and possibly building my own pipeline for off-market leads to make this strategy viable long-term.
