Your Network = Your Net-worth"Been watching Evernest's video's and they share a ton on "everything and anything" property management related so that's been a blessing.Biggest take away when it comes to scaling a PM is to spread the word about what you're looking at doing and to build relationships.Local real estate events, NARPM, IMN, etc...You want everyone to think of you if they are looking at selling or if they know of anyone looking at selling.I use to be "loud and proud" and a huge extrovert but I guess "old age" has got me hahaI prefer drinking coffee and smoking a cigar behind closed doors.But, I guess I'll have to start "shaking hands" and "kissing babies" like a president when it comes to networking again lolMaybe even do a few video's while not wearing any pants heheBig hat's down to Matthew Whitaker for scaling the business so much.I remember spending some time together in Birmingham when he had a decent sized operation of around 1,200 units or so.Now they are 16,000+ 👏HUGE...We initially met as I was interested in selling our property management company in Toledo and now we are looking at acquiring others heheTime flies, things change and life is funny.Thanks everyone for your contribution and wishing you much success

Normally, anything at a bar and for real estate investors is a good networking venue (also drinks can be tax write-offs).

Being new to the REI world, I'm eager to connect with fellow investors, real estate agents, and anyone with insights into the NC market.Whether it's grabbing a coffee, enjoying a drink, or visiting potential properties, I'm open to various ways to connect and learn from each other.

I don't pay for tools, supplies (of the trade), food or drinks...

Others drink, smoke, and don't try to help themselves in any way.

He’s an alcoholic and does not work.The police do nothing and show up hours after the call.

I mean, if you’re like me and don't like to drink, drive, fly, eggs, enjoy reading by flickering candlelight, and prefer living in a tent in your buddy’s backyard (I actually did this in college) then you are good to go.

I've attended Cincinnati REIA twice and it's a little content and a lot of hype and a lot of newbies drinking the koolaide and paying the high membership fees.
