With that said, I would also like to start working with investors who need an agent that understands their needs and maybe even go in on some of the deals with you.I'll end my post there, looking forward to making long term relationships with everybody on the site.Thanks guys!

I think every relationship should be mutually beneficial.

I have joined BiggerPockets.com in hopes that I can create some outstanding relationships that just are not possible here in my local area.

I am looking for a private lender that I can have a long term business relationship with.

I am interested in helping us "Baby Boomers" in the thousands as we gracefully become older and wiser!

Late to the thread, but did you build a relationship with a local KC concrete/asphalt  guy Andrew? 

These are a waste of time:@Jay HinrichsMy "pearls" have to do with developing the right referral relationships.  

Looking to connect and gain mutually beneficial relationships.  

Ever have a personal relationship that was great in the beginning, not so great later on? 

This one is coming with 20% instant equity and needs "nothing" to rent out in the heart of grandview it's already a bit overdone for the area - granite, stainless, hardwoods, outbuilding) - I think this one will rent as soon as I take possession and market it.On the financing side, I took my relationship with portfolio lender a step further and moved some security assets I've been holding a long time (income oriented things like bond ETFs) for free to their asset management division, which allowed them to give me a line of credit with those as collateral at 3.5% "interest only".
