Again, I have a bias against "gurus", and the bigger the social media following, the more skeptical I am.  

It depends on the property and your market, but I would start social media profiles for the property or your brand if you plan on expanding.

@Vy LeRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

I joke that he's the unofficial Mayor of Springfield based on all of the social and charitable activities that he does there.

Connect with others in the real estate community—whether it's through social media, forums, or local meetups—to find opportunities.

I promise it beats trusting social media gods.Investor list nurturing requires consistent communication.

The reason I picked this one over others is due to the following:1) Its syncs with Google/GMail & Calendar, and it has several "killer addons" for Gmail & Chrome, which is where I have all of my current contact info. 2) It only costs $15 per month, but, I believe that they have recently increased their initial price to $25.3) It's one of the only CRMs that is heavily centered around social media.

If you're willing to put the time, strategies like cold call, direct mail, door knock, PPC, social media might be worthwhile.
