Newcomer looking to learn

Samuel Dunlap

Hello BP Chicago Community! 

I recently graduated from The University of Michigan, and have relocated to Chicago in search of work. I have read six books on real estate investing but was hoping to connect with some seasoned locals who have the lived experience and are familiar with the nuances of investing in the Chicago area. 

Looking forward to connecting!

Samuel

@Samuel Dunlap welcome to the community! You are in the right place to meet a lot of great people here in the Chicago market. Which part of Chicago do you live in currently? I would recommend finding local meetups to start digging into whichever sub market you want to invest in. I personally got so much value from a land lording group that meets locally here in Berwyn when I was starting out. Networking is the way to go!
