Level Up - From Agent to Entrepreneur

Cash Offers & Motivated Sellers: How to Add Investing to Your Agent Toolkit w/Tom Cafarella


Listen Later

Many agents feel apprehensive about getting into the investing side of real estate, and the current competitiveness in the market doesn't help those hesitations. 

 

However, for those who are willing to leap, investing could be the thing that takes their business to the next level.

 

How does an agent make the shift to an investor? Can we use the investment side of things to bolster our existing real estate businesses?

 

How do we even begin to identify great deals when we're new to the investing space? 

 

In this episode, I’m joined by the host of the Agent Investor Podcast and co-founder of Ocean City Development, Tom Cafarella. We discuss how agents can maximize their results with real estate investing.



"The great news for agents saying they're not investors is, you don't need to be. Team up! There are so many people out there with cash, and it won't take much time to find investors." -Tom Cafarella

 

 

Three Things You’ll Learn In This Episode  

 

  • What to do if we don't feel comfortable investing

  • Not everyone feels comfortable investing, so don't be afraid to team up. A simple Facebook post can be all it takes to connect with potential partners.  

     

    • How investing allows us to maximize every opportunity

    • Often, agents will go into a property, assess that it needs a lot of work to go to market, and that marks the end of the road, but it doesn't have to be.

       

      • Why investing is a great fallback option for every agent

      • Most of the time, sellers prefer listing their properties to taking a cash deal, but there is a small percentage who won't. How can you create a service offering that meets the needs of those sellers?
