Networking at BPCON 2023

My wife and I are attending our first BPCON this month and we’re excited to get time away from our girls (2 and 4) and put some focus on expanding our MF portfolio. We currently have two buildings, one 14 family and one 4-family. One of our 18 units is a mid-term rental that we’ve seen great success with.

Do any repeat conference goers have any tips and tricks for us newbies?

Additionally, we’d enjoy networking with folks prior to and at the event so feel free to reach out!

Quote from @Daniel Hawthorne:

When I attend a conference, I have a list of people I hope to meet and speak with. I will make a document with their picture, name, details of who they are and what I want to speak with them about. Then it's easier to keep my eyes open and look for them.

I always sit next to new people every time I can. I'm an introvert, so I have to force myself to sit with strangers and ask a good ice-breaker question to get in.
