“Real estate is a people business. So my biggest tip is to talk to people all the time.”

At the beginning of the show, Pili talks about how she finds good deals in the current tough market. She connects and talks to people every day on social media. She also takes calls from anyone because according to her, she never knows when a good off-market deal comes up. This attitude has helped her to find immense success and grow her portfolio to around 1000 doors in recent years.

Pili explains that the only risk she’s taking by networking is losing her time. However, she can gain countless business opportunities, great team members, and a good reputation in the industry through it.

“Life is all about relationships.“

Even though Pili loves engaging with people, she recommends that everyone find their own power. For some people, it’s networking, for others it’s crunching numbers, but everybody is good at something. Find people in your team with different superpowers.

Pili’s advice is to take action. Don’t wait until you become an expert in your field, take the risk and start taking action today!

“Make friends in those places where you don’t think you could be of any service because I guarantee you that you can be.”

Pili is very active on social media. She engages with people on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Instagram, like many other investors, but she also likes to try unconventional platforms. Her newer favorites are Twitter Spaces and Clubhouse.

Pili’s advice is to try to be active on as many social platforms as possible and don’t be afraid to try new sites now and then.
