I have just made my first 6 phone calls to Real Estate Agent offices in order to find my agent!

I left brief messages on their answer phone with my position and contact details as most weren't in the office. I was shaking at first but I kept going.

My final call was to an agent who seemed very keen to work with me. He seems to be very proactive and he was very informative about the properties in the area. He is compiling a list of suitable properties for me, according to my criteria. He also asked whether I would be interested in permit properties or not. I don't know what that means but I am about to do some investigation to find out.

I am 5 days into "30 Days to Real Estate Cash" and I am excited! This is my first ever attempt at Real Estate. I discovered the book 5 days ago and I am jumping right in!

Over the past 2 days I have collated information on agents in my area. I live in a small rural area. Yesterday I went into the city (I usually go in once in a blue moon) to see if I had the guts to glean information from or about Real Estate Agents. I did! I quizzed a receptionist and got the names of agents that work with investors in her office. I introduced myself, told her that I was an investor and we had a brief chat.

For me, that was a big deal, as I was concerned that I'd get quizzed and falter! But, I took a deep breath and believed in what I had read and had faith that I could do it.
