Hello BP Community,
I am underway in my real estate journey. I am located in the Upstate South Carolina area and I am hoping to hear of some referrals from other local investors in the area; (ie: Realtors, Contractors, Property Managers, and Lenders) that have served you well, or if you are in one of those trades reach out, let's learn more about each other, and build a relationship.
Feel free to reach out. My wife and I have flipped close to a hundred homes in the area, own a real estate brokerage, have 25 rentals, manage properties, and are now financing others for their real estate endeavors. Would love to chat and see how we can work together.

Hi Jonathan! Welcome to BiggerPockets and thanks for joining!
Here are some tips for networking and making the most of your account.
1) I'd fill out your profile fully before you do anything else! As that will at least help folks that you reach out to know that you are a real person, with a picture and professional bio. Particularly be sure to include your goals for real estate investing so that folks can help you.
2) Follow your favorite forum categories and set up keyword alerts! Adding keywords related to your investment strategy or market locations can be updated in your settings. You’ll receive notifications when there is conversation in the forums you follow or if a user mentions those keywords—so keep them updated often!
3) Check out some of the local meetups that you can find in this forum! There are so many so be sure to filter by your location.
5) Consider meeting with a few agents in your area even if you are just getting started! An investor friendly agent can do all sorts of helpful things, like setting you up with a search for properties or connecting you with folks who have recently done deals like the ones you want to do.
6) Consider analyzing a deal or two in your local market, just for practice, with a free use of our Rental Property Calculator (or other calculators).
Hope this helps! Please reach out with any questions you may have!

@Chris C. Appreciate you reaching out, I'll send you a connection request and we can definitely chat. Sorry for the delay in response, been a wild week. Look forward to the connection.
I'm interested in connecting with you and learning about which areas and products you are looking to invest. I've got a few great lenders and select contractors that I can suggest.
