Hello BiggerPockets Folks!!

[Rajiv Nair]

Hello Everyone,

I am excited to be part of the bigger pockets community and would like to introduce myself. I am Rajiv Nair and am new to real estate investing. Currently have one rental SFR in Allen, TX and another deal hopefully under my belt by August 2015 in McKinney Texas.

I am currently living in Portland, Oregon area (moved from Dallas) and am looking for deals to buy a Multi-Family in the area, (Oregon or Washington) with minimum down-payment. I will simultaneously be looking for deals in North Texas as well specifically in Frisco, McKinney, Plano, Allen and surrounding areas up to 60 miles, if Portland isn't offering much in terms of deals.

I have been listening to podcasts, watching webinars and reading as much as I can, but would like to get tips from all of you on how to connect with REI community in Portland. Please let me know if you could share information related to networking events in this area since I am fairly new to this place and any other tips are welcome. Once again thank you and glad to be part of this big Family.
