This is something that the agent you are talking with also had required prior to the changes. 

I love talking shop.  

You may need to call once a month for a year and most times you won't talk about real estate, you offer your help if they need anything.

Stop hanging out with your deadbeat buddies who spend all day drinking, talking sports, and otherwise wasting away.

Perhaps even talk to a few to see the differing opinions they have and try to assess whether one of them can help you in the way you need. 

He's talking about motivated sellers.

Talk with your normal lender.  

The main person I talk with just changed shoot me a DM if you want! 

Stop hanging out with your deadbeat buddies who spend all day drinking, talking sports, and otherwise wasting away.

For example, people wanted to know "what happens if the seller says this when you talk to them on the phone"..he would respond by saying "Only ask questions pertaining to where you are in the process".
