I have to explain that relationships are cultivated over time and by your past experience and track record.My clients and other contacts I know that have hundreds of thousands to millions a millions in cash do not form partnerships quickly or give out money to just anyone.

However, for many of us who have another principal business or profession and invest in real estate as a side venture, our time is typically better spent billing our customers in our "real" job or undertaking strategic business activities as J Scott outlines and not swinging a hammer.In my case, I've spent time cultivating relationships with my carpenter, plumber, electrician, etc. and have built a small crew who handle much of our renovation/rehab work {much as John Carpenter describes his role above}.

It is a process and it takes time to cultivate private money sources.

This is a team sport and you will be tied to your partners for years most likely, so it is imperative that you put in the time to cultivate the RIGHT relationships.

I have a quick question that I have researched but would just like to make sure that I understood it correctly.SO, I am combing through public records on the MLS to target LLC’s to find the owners and network with them to cultivate a relationship.

I am initiating conversations with my existing network for potential investors and cultivating new connections. 

These other investors benefit from assisting you, and your local REIA can help you cultivate these relationships.
