Not all real estate agents are the same, and finding the right one can make all the difference when you're ready to make a move. It helps to look for someone with a solid reputation, a deep understanding of both local and national markets, and strong communication skills. If you’re ever curious about the market or just want to chat about real estate, I’m always here as a resource. #realestateinsights #guidingyourjourney #StartPacking

If you keep waiting for the “perfect” moment → You’ll never start. Truth is, the "perfect moment" is a myth. The most impactful opportunities in our lives often come disguised. ↳ As imperfect, messy, or even risky situations ⚡ I bought my first rental property when my family and I moved to Dallas about 7 years ago. I didn’t know a lot about investing in rental properties. And the imperfect decisions I made, proved that very clearly: ➡ I bought a property straight off the MLS. ➡ Paid more than the asking price. ➡ Paid entirely in cash—no financing, no leverage. ➡ My family and I tried to handle the minor fixes and management ourselves. All while I was juggling my full-time medical career. It was FAR from perfect. Most experts would even say it wasn't the best choice 🤷🏻♂️ But that “imperfect” first step? It turned out to be the start of something much bigger. That house became the foundation of our real estate journey. ✅ It taught us the basics: negotiating, fixing, and managing. ✅ It gave us the confidence to take on bigger opportunities. ✅ And it taught me that you don’t need perfection to start—you just need action. Fast forward to today, and I’ve continued with single-family rentals but also we help doctors invest in multifamily apartment buildings. The lesson? ✔ Don’t wait for all the pieces to fall into place. Whether it's real estate, your career, or a passion project. ✔ Start where you are. With what you have. The "perfect moment" won't arrive on its own → It’s up to you to make it happen. What’s one thing you’ve been pushing aside because it doesn’t feel like the perfect time?

Don't underestimate the power of networking. Building relationships with real estate agents, contractors, and other industry professionals can provide valuable insights and opportunities for collaboration. Whether you're a seasoned flipper or just starting, never stop learning and adapting. The world of house flipping is constantly evolving, and staying ahead of the curve is essential for long-term success.

I took a call with a young multifamily agent in NYC who slid into my DMs on Twitter. He's at a boutique shop – 100% work from home & only focused on off market deals. It's been over 12 months and he's gotten close on 2 big checks that ultimately blew up at closing. But no $$$ yet. My advice for someone starting out: 1. Find the top teams: Figure out the top 10 agents & teams selling and controlling the product in your market. These are the guys/gals you want to work for. This can be difficult as an outsider looking in, but it's easy to just ask around. Or jump on Costar and pull the data. 2. Mentorship: Seek formal mentorship from a very active agent with a track record. They provide the desk, resources and hand-holding, you make the cold calls and dig up the deals. Fees get split 50/50. Lots of junior agents are quiting right now in this rough market, so lots of top teams are hiring. 3. Go for listings: Make sure you latch onto an agent that teaches the business in the right way. Calls -> Meetings -> Proposals -> Listings -> $$$ -> Repeat Controlling inventory is crucial, but even more so in a down market. To list is to last in brokerage. 4. Get into the office: There's no handbook for building a long-term, successful career in brokerage. You need to surround yourself with the game and learn from those who have made it. They were all in your shoes at one point. If you're working in a silo, you're at a major disadvantage. Get into the office and listen.
