Real Estate Bird Dog and Due Diligence, Training Lesson 20

Well, I thought my previous post on building your Real Estate Bird Dogging team was going to be my last one.  But, I kept thinking of more stuff I need to add in.

We’ve identified who we need on our team, now how do we find them?

You know you need someone to help you; now how do you find them? Do your research, check with friends and other professionals for references. Go comparison-shopping. Don’t just look in the yellow pages for a name; call the person or company and explain what you’ll be doing and how they can help. Chances are they’ll be glad for the new business.

The more successful you become, the more help you’re going to need. Line up your team members in advance: lawyers, appraisers, lenders, clean-up people, and insurers. Knowing in advance who they’ll be can make transactions smoother and more fun. As you’re lining up your team make sure you’re clear with each person about your expectations and theirs. Just what do you expect from them? How much will you pay? When will they receive the money? Don’t expect something for nothing. Make the transaction worth their time and effort, and establish good business connections.

Once you line up your Real Estate Bird Dog team, you’re ready for business. Locate a property, make a few calls to your team members, and be ready for a pleasant, smooth, transaction!
