Tips for Building Your Real Estate Investment Team

Plan the Work, then Work the Plan


As investors, we all have a certain role we play in a deal. Some of us wear many hats, and some of us specialize in a specific area. A lot of times, needs and skill sets change from deal to deal.


To put yourself in the best position to close a deal, you need to first plan out what resources you need.


Here's a list of roles that you may need for any investment team:


  1. Legal/Attorneys

  2. Brokers

  3. 3rd Party Reports/Data

  4. Insurance Providers

  5. Underwriting

  6. Engineering/Architects

  7. Construction/Renovations

  8. Title Agency

  9. Financing/Banks

  10. Investors


Establish Budgets


Determine your available funds and budget your costs to make sure you pay for the services and expertise that you need.


“A lot of people go cheap on legal - in my opinion you get what you pay for.” - David Toupin, REL's CEO
