Charlotte Investing Starting Out
I will be moving to Charlotte, NC next fall, and am hoping to get into RE investing as soon as possible. Is there anybody from there who has advice on how to get started, what might be a good method, and any tips or advice! Thanks.

Hi Isaac - congrats on your upcoming move! The best resource for any new investor is their local REIA. In Charlotte it's NCREIA. The in person meetings are invaluable for networking and making relationships, and there is good education as well - speakers, workshops, virtual classes etc. There are about 15 meetings per month, about half live and half on zoom. You might think about joining as an online member, and then upgrade once you get relocated. www.NCREIA.com
