Thank you Barry. They are essentially the same but different approaches. X5deals in a once a week excel file that gets sent out via email. It has all the deals on it plus the newly added deals. Our PE subscribers like it because of privacy and also easy of use. Their analysts go through the file and choose the right deals to pursue. Interexo is more dynamic.It is a live website with interactions. Deals get added on daily basis. Once on the site (free to register and browse), you can set deal alerts for your exact criteria. As soon as a new deal becomes available you'll be notified via email. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Todd- In my experience, it takes time to build your network. One way to do it is to search for intermediaries on the web and offer one-on-one calls. If you do a few of these per day, you can build a 100+network in a few months. If you want to accelerate the process and don't mind spending some money, you can join networks like Axial to give you immediate exposure to deals from intermediaries that fit your investment criteria.

Todd, check out the IBBA (https://www.ibba.org/). They site allows you to search for brokers in a specific geographic location, and each broker's background/industry expertise (at least some description) should be provided.
