When I started REO Field Services, the focus was on providing services such as re-keying locks, debris removal, and lawn maintenance to Real Estate Agents that specialize in listing foreclosed properties. I also "thought" that large Field Service Companies might contract business through us but it appears that the assignment of work from these companies is more of an inside game than I initially imagined.  The bulk of our work is still referred by Real Estate Agents but we are also beginning to be approached more frequently by investors needing services for their properties. 

As an example, we were recently referred by a local Real Estate Agent to paint the interior of a rental property.  Before and after pictures of our work are on my website.

Ken Brand, Sales Manager with Prudential Gary Greene in The Woodlands, Texas wrote on agentgenius.com "Our metaphoric streets are littered with free opportunities for the open eyed, eared and minded."  In my case, being open minded has gotten me away from an opportunity that was not going to yield results and focused on something else that will.

The best way to find these opportunities is by getting out and meeting new people.  Whether it's through social media, old school networking or "Kissing more babies and making more speeches."  Anything any of us can do to create a new conversation begins a new relationship.

So let's create more conversations and find more opportunities together! Step one in that process is to leave a comment below! :)
