A familiar voice pops in for this episode of the Rookie Podcast, it’s David Greene! The real estate agent, investor, entrepreneur, and co-host of the BiggerPockets Real Estate podcast joins us to talk about making the transition to top real estate agent and what new investors can do to find better deals and a great agent.Most newbie investors want to be hand-held, which makes sense when you’re just starting out. That being said, that may not be the best way to find a great agent who can help you find a profitable deal. David talks through why so many new investors never end up buying, why you aren’t “hiring” an agent, and how to work together to achieve a win-win scenario. As he puts it, you’re in a partnership together, meaning it’s a win-win or a lose-lose.If you’re trying to become a great agent, make sure you jot down some notes on David’s “medicine and delivery system” analogy where he talks about how he had to change his perceptions to succeed as a real estate agent. Many new agents (and investors) want to wait until they get their first sale/deal to become confident, but you’ll need confidence before you can get the first one!In This Episode We CoverWhat exactly an “investor-friendly” agent isHow David Greene built one of the top real estate teams in America How new investors should look at their investor/agent relationships Making sure you manage client expectations as an agent especially when working with investorsWho should (and shouldn’t) become a real estate agent Using social media to boost your credibility and industry presenceAnd So Much More!Links from the ShowReal Estate Rookie Facebook GroupAshley's InstagramTony's InstagramRookie Youtube ChannelBiggerPockets PodcastKellerWilliamsBiggerPockets Podcast 353: Turning $5K Into $5K/Month and Retiring at 40 with Tim RhodeBiggerPockets Podcast 226: From “D-Student” to $400,000 in Annual Rental Property Cash Flow with David OsbornReal Estate Rockstars PodcastBiggerPockets Podcast 190: Building 61 Different Passive Streams of Income with Pat HibanKeller Wiliams BoldKeller Williams IgniteBiggerPockets Podcast 406: 51 Units and $900/Month in Pure Cashflow on a “BRRRRnB” with Shelby OsborneShelby OsborneLAPS SystemBiggerPockets Money PodcastBiggerPockets Business PodcastBiggerPockets StoreCheck the full show notes here: http://biggerpockets.com/rookie81See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
