I'm a 32 yr old 'dinosaur' who refuses to use (nor do I have time for) social media, so I appreciate the tip :).

I have had numerous businesses through the years but it was serious health issue and the realization that disability social security payments would not allow me to live that made me want to build a successful RE portfolio.

Direct mail, Bandit signs, social media; which have you had a better response with?

Sometimes there are local HMLs who are only known who are "in the circle" if you know what I mean.

The real estate melt-down in 2008-2009 necessitated my unretirement...After looking for some other way to rebuild my retirement portfolio I have circled back to real estate as my vehicle of choice.

You get a referral like you did from your realtor and you're borrowing his or her social equity with that contractor, then I can see the contractor doing a one off.

Different pictures on every social media account.

Has anyone Used Facebook or LinkedIn to promote there website/business?

Once I just into this game I was surprised about how many people in my circles were involved in REI in some way or another.
