hey all, I'm from ct, I've been investing in real estate for a few years, but on a pretty slow scale, I've done a few flips and bought a vacation home. Anyone else out there thats either just beginning or has some experience. I think we should start our own group, and start networking, discussing deals, ideas, etc. We could have meetings in a chat room, and send group emails to keep etc.. I am new to these forums, a prosperous local investor friend of mine, told me to check them out, and I'm glad he did, there is so much great stuff on here, and so many new savvy investors! I'm now interested in doing more investments, and also getting involved in rental income, and commercial investments. We are now in a down market, and the best way to make money is to Add value. Gone are the days of buy high, sell higher, Aint gonna happen anymore. We need to get creative, share straegies, and buy correctly. HAs anyone else read this book, I'm dying to discuss some of his strategies.
I think our first group post should deal with buying strategy. How about anyone interested in this, add one thing you would look for when buying an investment in this market. I'll start.
Oppurtunity to buy from the owner right BEFORE they are forced to go to foreclosure.
