Takeaways + Tactics
At the start of the show, we talked about how Mitch got to 1500 deals, and why driving for dollars is the easiest way to get income properties when you’re on a small budget. We also discussed how to filter leads down when you have less money, and how to use that to your advantage. We went onto talk about why it’s necessary to stay top of mind and how to do it. Towards the end of the show, Mitch shared on the joy he feels when he helps other people.
Mitch also spoke about:
There’s so much competition, it’s really all about consistency and speed these days. Success comes down to talking to people. The more people you talk to, the more chances you have to buy a house. As an investor it’s your job to stay top of mind with real estate agents. They come across problem houses about twice a year and by that time, they might have forgotten about you. Remember: success is not a straight line.
