Tweetable Quotes:
“Start raising money early, start building that network early. You never wanna be on the downhill. If you are on the downhill, like you are running out of money or you’re running out of time, I mean, I know, you run out of time in real estate like all the time but build early and then just keep talking to people. And if you’re selling everytime you’re talking to people, stop doing that.” – Tim Cooley
