do they have any referrals or a book of past projects that have similar performance?

All in all, I would say open and honest communication. if you need some references for your area just let me know I have referral partners out that way.   

If not do you have a referral? 

@Evan Bell if you call one of the other PM's I am sure they can give you a referral 

Hey Kevin, I can send you some referrals for lenders in Ohio.

If you need any referrals for members of your team, or any help otherwise, let me know as I'd be happy to recommend just about any one of the rockstar members we have on our team.Good Luck!

By focusing on the quality of early adopters, rather than just quantity, we ensure that new members find a platform already populated with valuable connections.We're also implementing a referral system that rewards our early users for bringing in their trusted contacts.

@David Yandel there's no easy answer.You should question the experience, competency and incentive of anyone that gives you a referral.

Hey Mike, I would be happy to connect, I'll send you some referrals as well. 

I would like a referral for an investor friendly CPA in southern california.
