On this week’s episode, I’m continuing a series that coincides with my upcoming book and name of the podcast, The Insider’s Edge to Real Estate Investing. In this show, the fourth of this 12-part series, I delve into one of the most important aspects of real estate investing: your relationships. This is not a game you’ll play on your own and having a partner you can count on will help you get great wins, time and again. I lay out the different players you’ll need on your dream team, and how each one will contribute to the deal. My writing partner, Rachel Hartman, interviews me as I share ways to get to know others in this space, how to approach them, and the benefits of long-term relationships. Bottom line: your reputation will reign supreme, and others will notice who you keep in your circle. In addition to helping me with the book, Rachel pens content for Fortune 500 companies and is a regular contributor for U.S. News & World Report (connect with her at LinkedIn).
