This is about the tried and true human interactions that build relationships that deliver opportunities. Meeting people with like goals or similar interests has always been one of the most productive business-building activities.
Real
Estate Investment Clubs
There
is no better place to find a group of people all in one location with a single
main focus of making money in real estate than at a real estate investment club
meeting. I'm not just talking about buyers or sellers.
Many of these clubs have lending
libraries with books, video and audio courses as well. Reading everything you
can get your hands on is worth the time and effort. Information is power, and
power is money in real estate investing.
You may actually meet partners
for future joint investment ventures at these clubs. Often people get together
to do a deal for financing reasons. While individuals couldn't pull it off,
combining resources may get the deal done for everyone's benefit. Long term
partnerships have grown from these chance meetings at investment clubs.
Virtually Anyone Who Sees
Abandoned Homes
This one is not talked about much
but can actually be the source for some amazing bargain basement deals. Get to
know and give your card to people who come across homes that have been
abandoned. They may not yet be in foreclosure, or they may be in the early
stages.
Online and other traditional
marketing tools work as well, but networking is still the most productive
method for many. The more people you meet and the more business card
information you keep, the more opportunities you're likely to get to make
deals.
