Hello all,
Do any financial firms/advisors, Real Estate agents, Wholesalers, Lawyers, CPAs, investment companies, wealth management firms, private equity firms, property management companies, etc. have any suggestions for finding accredited investors?

@Kareem R.
They typically will not give away client names. It’s more about marketing and using marketing firms. Also network at high net worth event areas such as country clubs, art galleries, high end car auctions… also depends on how much you plan to raise and for what
If you can get a 10x most marketing firms would say that is a win - meaning spend $100k in marketing to get $1M raise if you are just starting out with no track record

Hey @Account Closed - you could try hitting up brokers in your area and soliciting them for projects. Most brokerages will have individual agents that have a varying degree of client lists. It's a matter of building a relationship with them... as you could probably already tell, it takes time.
Alternatively, I've found that if I go to a real estate specific networking event (there are a few local ones around NYC/LI) with an explicit project in hand, people are more open to helping. Not sure what it is, but I think it's the in-person aspect.

Certainly, I prefer the face-to-face interaction as I've always found it's been more effective when building trust & developing relationships.
