Here we go… a no stings attached, step by step process to help you build a rockstar commercial and multifamily investing team!
#1 – Get to expert status
Always be learning, always be studying, always be curious, always be a student of the industry and of personal and professional development.
#2 – Put yourself in rooms, DAILY, filled with other potential partners and investors.
In-person rooms will TRUMP online rooms or forums every single day of the week, but with Zoom, GoogleMeet, and technology this year, there is no better and easier way to stay connected with a very specific niche of people.
Find the investors that are like-hearted, and like-minded, but who are focusing on commercial and multifamily deals. Bonus if they are military affiliated!
#3 – Get hyper-curious about everyone around you, but primarily their FORD or FROG:
- Family
- Occupation
- Recreation
- Dreams
Or
- Family
- Recreation
- Occupation
- Goals
You will quickly weed out the people who “aren’t at your level” of commitment, morals, ethics, short term real estate goals, long term real estate goals, etc.
#4 – Maintain and perfect a 15-20 second “elevator pitch”
Write down a repeat a 15-20, Barney-style, simple breakdown of:
- Who you are
- What you do
- What your multifamily investing superpower is
- What you are looking for
This one thing will place you in a different ball field because even with little to NO experience, you sure can sound like you know what you’re talking about and that you DO have a ton of experience!
#5 – Maintain, and continue to improve your level of self-awareness, so you can tell everyone you know EXACTLY who you are, what you do, how you add value to multifamily investing teams, and exactly what you’re looking for.
Your ability to succeed here is directly tied to your level of self-awareness.
#6 – Connect with someone new in real estate everyday until you are confident you have found your tribe.
Too easy. No excuses. Go.
