A few tips to build it faster:1) Attend local real estate meetups and networking events—Houston has an active investor community, and BiggerPockets is a great place to connect with others before meeting them in person.2) Join Facebook groups and other online forums for Houston real estate investors.

Today the real need is quality lead lists of actual motivated, stressed sellers!!!!!!!
