@Pat L.

Good morning.

Just making sure to say thank you for your input. The numbers definitely help me to make sense of it

@Erin Deann Martin

Thank you very much!

I'm taking action on your and @Anthony Vangilder suggestions immediately!

I've read through your introduction @Erin Deann Martin

Your goals, area, and business line up with what I would like to accomplish.

Can you and I connect here on BP?

@Anthony Vangilder

I think this is perfect. Thank you.

I dont think I would have thought about it in terms of helping them find what they are looking for because of the distance.

Now I'm thinking, ok if I reach out to people in the area, "How can I help them?"

For all of the investors I talk to and books I read, everyone seems to agree that you need to start with a plan.

GPS right?

So I took the time to write out my 20 year, 10 year, 5 year, 3 year, and 1 year goals/plan.

Of course I'm learning how much of a work in progress it will continue to be.

But I noticed in my 3 year plan where I want to be and where I am.

By year 3 I want to own a 2-4 unit property in Texas and continue investing in multifamilies in different cities in Texas.

Knowing this brought to mind the fact that I have very little network in Texas and I will absolutely "need" a power team.

So the question is......

Is right now too early to begin networking in Texas for real estate?

The questions that lead to this one are....

How do I bring value so far out?

Would it be a waste of their time?

How should I start to network in those areas this early?

@Victor Morales thanks for your post.

This question is actually something I needed to ask and now I have the answers.

@Jeff S. I see what you're saying. This is something I'll have to work up to.

It's definitely a goal bout I'm not the guy with the cash to lend on a full flip yet lol

@Pat L. Thank you for the input.

If you dont mind sharing numbers....what would be the spread you would want to see on something like that and why?

Or can you point me to a place I can do the learning myself?

@Jay Hinrichs this is Gold!

Thank you very much Mr. Hinrichs.

If I'm not mistaken....haven't you been a guest on the biggerpockets podcast?

More than once if I recall.

@Bill Brandt I think you're right. This is why I like BP.

This is another point I didn't consider.

Thanks for the input.

@Colton Fairchild makes sense. I haven't thought about the ability of the person.

Meaning if someone "should" be doing a closing cost loan.

Thanks for the input.
