"Wall Street is the only place that people ride to in a Rolls Royce to get advice from those who take the subway."

Stephen,Time is money.If you are at the top of your game you expect the money to match.There are too many investors out there who can show me hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars in their bank accounts and stock portfolios etc.All I have to do is have a listing they want to buy.Guys with no money locking up property to try to wholesale commercial real estate and "make it rich" are a waste of my time.I play percentages.A direct buyer has a much higher percentage of closing than a non-direct buyer because there are so many more pieces involved to make a successful transaction.If an investor wastes my time and wasn't a real buyer they are actually taking money from me.The reason is I have nothing to show for working with them versus I could have spent the time with someone who could close the deal.Hard money isn't bad as long as they have some money in the deal.There are a lot of people who don't have 10 cents trying to be something there not.Everybody has to start somewhere so nothing wrong with it.Just be honest about where you are TODAY and where you want to be TOMORROW.Showing a proof of funds valid within the last 30 days would go a long way with a broker/agent to take you seriously.Obviously if you don't have that and are trying some off the wall stuff you will meet a newer agent with very little experience or someone in the game awhile but hasn't had much success.Just like Jake I will vet a potential investor client just as much as they qualify me.If both parties are not asking questions and verifying there should be some serious red flags that come up.
