Lots of companies target new agents since they are hungry to buy their way to launching their career, but a $2500 coaching course when you haven't written an offer or closed a sale is a waste of money.

Penny-wise, pound-foolish. 

We specifically look for well-built, comfortable old SFR in our target neighborhoods. 

While that was happening, my local bank just approved a loan for one million to refinance some of my small multi units.I would target regional banks and credit unions.

I know a retired athlete who has seven figures in the bank, but works full-time at Target just for the benefits.At the moment, when doing my budget based on my rental income and using 1,500 as a conservative number for insurance, I would have around 4,000-4,500 left over per month. 

I will most likeley be pre-qualifying most of my targeted properties.

Also, when we target investment properties they may not be in a neighborhood that we will live in.  

By sending to absentee owners and multi family owners the target is like, burned out or accidental landlords. 

Knowing your target market and having a strong team in that area will help lead you to success.

We have 12 listings at the moment and are targeting 20+ this year and are aiming to crack the $1 million per year mark in bookings.
