Building Lasting Connections: The Networking Benefits of Real Estate Masterminds

Networking is one of the most critical components of improving your real estate investing portfolio.

Whether you’re looking to move into a new market, expand in your current market, or even just do better with your current investing portfolio, a strong network should be one of your first steps.

That’s because your network is an important part of your success, whether you’re an absolute beginner in real estate investing or you’re an established investor with dozens of properties.

If you’re looking to gain networking benefits, here’s what you need to know about networking and real estate.

Are Connections Really Important in Real Estate?

Networking may not seem like one of the most important components of real estate.

However, if you want to improve your real estate portfolio, you need to start making connections within the industry. Here are just a few of the ways that these networking connections can benefit you:

• More sources of information. When you’re working by yourself, you only have access to a single source and point of information. Networking connections allow you to gather more information from more sources.

• Help when you run into a problem. You’re going to run into problems in your real estate investment journey; this is just a factor of life. Networking allows you to find someone who has had a similar or identical problem and get help fixing it.

• A broader ability to find people. Someone will always know someone who has the information you’re looking for. The larger your network, the more likely it will be that you’ll be able to find that “someone” more easily.

• The ability to move into something new. If you’re ever interested in expanding outside of your current real estate investment experience, connections are critical. You’ll need those connections to effectively grow into something new.

Networking for the Long Term

The idea of “networking” can be incredibly impersonal for many people.

This is because too many people are conceptualizing networking as being something that they’re only utilizing for professional development.

But here’s the secret.

Networking is as much about building personal relationships as building professional relationships.

You never want to go into networking with the idea that it’s “for networking.” You want to build friendships and personal connections. The fact that these people can also help you in your professional development should be a secondary benefit.

People will generally be able to tell if you’re only interested in networking because of the benefits they can give you, and this can put them off. Instead, treat networking like creating long-term friendships, with the added benefit that you can provide professional assistance to each other.

Is Your Network Large Enough?

You might think that you already have a decently sized network, so you don’t really need to develop a larger network.

But remember that your network can always be larger.

The more people you have in your network, the more likely you are to know exactly the right person when you need a favor, or to find someone who’s run into the same issue you have.

Even if you already have a relatively large network, you can probably see benefits from expanding your network. There are many, many people in the real estate investment community, and the more people you know, the more likely you’ll be to gain benefits from your network.

Regardless of how large your network is, building more connections is always a good thing.
