Pay them well, quickly and treat them like your business partners. 

Right now, solving problems for realtors is the best way to help them and help your own business as well. 

Business is business at the end of the day.

Very glad to see so many people use this strategy.

A big step in my journey was becoming a thought leader in the real estate finance business.

I’ve had success with QR codes in other businesses.

Hearing it from people with more experience just hits different. 

A lot of people in California have been looking at investing out of state in more landlord-friendly markets where they don't have rent control and it's easier to evict non-paying tenants. 

Rochester is great for investment and the prices are decent to get a duplex (4 bed, 2 bath min total).One concern though, when people who are not contractors say they are good at home improvements, they aren't usually as good as they think and their value isn't higher, it's actually lower because of unpermitted renovations or personal cosmetic choices.

Yes, I was trying to avoid the use of PM and that was why I was seeking some guidance and to see if it was even possible from people with more experience.
