Agents and Property Managers

[Account Closed]

Any recommendations on agents or property managers in the sarasota or surrounding areas? I would love to network with some since I am newish to the area. I have reached out to a few that I found on google and using chatgpt, grok, etc but it is amazing how many people that are in a relationship based industry that simply can not respond to any messages.... I tried to use the search tool on here like I have done in the past but the website has so many unfixed bugs that the results are irrelevant or from years ago... Any first hand recommendations would be greatly appreciated. :)

@Account Closed you haven't shared why you're looking to network.

If you're hoping to network with agens & PMCs to have them feed you offmarket properties and other types of "deals", you're just one-of-a-million to them.

We get inquires almost every day from OOS investors looking to invest in Detroit.

For FREE these investors expect us to:

- Drop everything else we're doing and focus on what they want
- Spend hours on the phone with them TEACHING them how to invest
- Spend hours finding deals for them
- At this stage, many NEVER want to make an offer, just want to see better deals or they just disappear
- Find lenders for them
- and on and on and on

So, right or wrong, it's no wonder many in the industry ignore communications from investors.

Recommend you network in person and be respectful of their time.
