I'm actually in the process of starting direct mail and working with a team to get this portion of my business up and running.

I also have an agent on my team that specializes in and around the Center City Philadelphia region and surrounding.

You have to assemble the right team though.

Time management and building a solid team are key elements to success. 

There team up in Austin is amazing.

How do you reach out to large groups such as church group, youth sports teams, family reunion groups, near a certain city?

I have a great team and we are ready to toll but i don't want to get mixed up with a bad lender on my first try at hard money lending.

Great job getting the first deal done, Travis & team!!!

I wouldn’t work with an agent who has had their license for less than 4 years UNLESS they are working on a team where the team leader has more experience and will be available to help, if needed.
