I would love to hear about your first trip to the United States when you were at the beginning of the road
How long have you traveled (to the city where you invested, not including fun days in New York for example?)
At what stage were you (how many assets you already had at the time, if any)
How many hours did you work a day?
How did you plan your trip?
And what lessons did you produce / what would you do better
Post teaches and enriches.
I flew for 10 days to St. Louis after purchasing a property and it was an important expression. We met and talked there with quite a few Red Money Lander brokers, Holsler contractors and other professionals in the field, we asked a lot of questions, we tried to learn from everyone and indeed we learned a lot about real estate and renovations, we learned to examine properties more correctly, we learned to be more professional, we made connections, we studied the areas and neighborhoods in St. Lewis and more. This trip was very effective and in my opinion it is recommended for every investor/entrepreneur to fly to the area where he invests at least once, I at least plan not to settle for one and do it once in a while. Successfully?
Hi Liat, my first flight was for 8 days including all flights, inside and out, jumping to Miami for bank account legal treatment, and a few hours of visiting BFF who just gave birth to another state. In short, it was extremely crowded but I couldn't fly any more.
What I did was just a marathon of meetings, most of which were pre-arranged. Some went down or added spontaneously, or out of place. Despite the abysmal lack of sleep, it was totally worth it.
Perhaps the most important tip I took from that visit, is to next use the Jetlag prevention app, which I received from Keren Yadid? If your time is really limited, as mine was - this thing will maximize your time well. Thank you so much to the foundation and lots of success and enjoyment to you, Liat?
One of the best posts I've read. Especially the comments, wow, every word is gold. Save and print
Post is very interesting, and businesslike.
Liat Well done Your post won this week on Top Ten !!! ???????
Meetings in coffee shops is great and saves personal time, especially if it's a first meeting to get to know each other, preferably in the office of the service provider or in the daily work area
In this way you get the impression from the business from the employees and see how the business is managed (organized messy quiet active etc.)
Which group stuns some tips
My first trip was planned for about two weeks which in my opinion is a great time that should be enough for meetings and acquaintances with the people who work with us and for us, acquaintance with the city and its neighborhoods (Philadelphia), and most importantly .. to see with your eyes your assets Get to know the transportation systems, the trends in real estate, the hottest neighborhoods among investors, past and present and in the future. Designed to hook. That means you have to be very focused and focused on what to do tomorrow, what to see and what to give up. Everything else joins what has already been said here.
Can recommend that you locate a branch of Panera Bread Panera Bread
Scattered in many places and the menu is accessible and nice to everyone (salads, soups, sandwiches, etc. - aroma style only more successful for my taste)
Local real estate meetings as offered here - great! It could introduce you to more people, ask brokers to set up with them or on local sites - can also search on LinkedIn for certain people you want
Strongly recommend you to look where the coffee house is closest to your hotel and tell the professionals to meet you there, it will save you a lot of time!
In my first week I spent a lot of time on travel.
Of course, you will make as many appointments as possible in advance.
Successfully:)!
First time I traveled for a week so there were 5 full business days, I pre-arranged some anchor meetings and the rest I set from day to day. I tried to concentrate the meetings in certain areas so as not to drive too much from meeting to meeting. Joining Yossi's advice to go to some meetings of local real estate groups, you can search for REIA in the area you are traveling to, and also search Facebook groups and go to events of real estate investors, this is very interesting and contributing. Talking to local people, where possible, it gives some insight into the situation in the area, in terms of employment status, etc.
