But finding a real deal in any area of Houston can be a challenge, given the number of players.

I can bring a decent amount of interesting players to the table as well, so worst case scenario folks get to me others in the industry.

A baseball player myself, so I travel quite a bit, just curious how some of you in any area got started.

My real estate team works with a lot of investors in the area, and while the larger players GC the jobs themselves, I should be able to get you headed in the right direction.

I default back to trusted players in the industry..

You must have a team player attitude and want to help others make money.We have systems in place for individuals with an entrepreneurial mindset, who are willing to roll up their sleeves, and put in the work.

BP is a great site to gain information.What I've been doing in my area is taking investors, preferably the bigger players, out to lunch and picking their brains.

If you want to get a foot in the door you need to know who the power players are and who pulls the strings for the community.

Now most people in those meetings do few if any deals but you'll be able to tell who the real players are.

If you're starting out, I wouldn't try going against the major league players.
