“You have to get to know someone on a level other than what they're good at in real estate. What are their core values? What do they value in life? How do they spend their free time? What do they do with their family? Take them to lunch a couple of times and see how they treat a waiter at a restaurant. Things like that that seem kind of funny to say, but really digging into who they are personally.” – April Crossley
