How do I find quality brokers in a new neighbourhood?
There are neighbourhoods I've tracked and like the look of, and the brokers I have relationships with don't have a presence there. I want to expand my multifamily portfolio.

I want to spend a few days in each neighbourhood. On Google Maps there are brokers on every block. What's the best way to narrow down who's worth meeting?

I'd maybe google some local family firms that have been in the business for a while.  Give em a call ask them what they know about the Multi-family market in the area you're interested in.  If they respond well maybe follow up with a meeting.  Go from there. \n\nIf local shops isn't your thing call a big national firm.  Same process. ", "replies": [], "depth": 1}]
