just another guy from new england

Howdy! a friend pointed me here, as an example of a nicely designed online community, and it turns out by coincidence that I've been thinking about finding a community for real estate investing and decided to join up.

I live in Massachusetts, and my background is in online businesses. I build, buy, sell, and manage online businesses very much like BiggerPockets.com. I recently sold several of my web properties, and have been thinking about diversifying myself by getting into something different like a brick and mortar business or real estate.

What I was thinking would be an ideal situation would be if I could find someone in my area who is already successful in real estate who might be looking to diversify, and I could help that person get into an online business while they help me get into real estate. Is that too crazy an idea?
