I recommend the Stepping Stone Group for PM in Minneapolis

Good luck in your search. I would add in areas around the south minneapolis light rail system and around any of the lakes including Hiawatha and Nokomis.

@Thomas Walson Welcome to BP. Just keep meeting as many people as you can and you will be all set. Networking is everything in this game of real estate. I host a couple meetups in town but they are on hold due to COVID unfortunately. Keep learning and you'll get there. 

@Josh Hoeft Congrats on a great first deal. Keep the momentum going. I would say driving for dollars is a great way to find yourself a deal or network with wholesalers and realtors who have off market deal flow.

Thanks for setting this up! 

@Jillian Peterson That is good to know on the limit. Have you heard if they are going to increase this number or is it something being talked about in local politics?

I host a weekly REI Zoom call at 4:30pm each Thursday! We have different speakers each call. It is organizing through meetup. com but it also on the events section of BP

@Meredith Mihm Hey! I have been researching vacation rentals quite a bit as I am purchasing a home in Two Harbors, MN to use as a vacation rental. I think it can be really profitable with the right team and plan in place. Let's connect sometime if you want to chat more.

@Pascal Cohen Pascal, Welcome to the BP community and congrats on taking the step into REI. Remain a student forever and you will do great. Network with as many people as possible. I used to live in NYC so I understand your position a lot.

Pick a market you have some familiarity with already if you can. Maybe you lived in that market prior, or your family or friend is from there, or maybe you travel there a lot for work. That will make it a lot easier to start. 

Other than that, I would use an analytical based approach and use population growth and job growth stats. I live in Minneapolis now and love the market. Also, open to connecting!

@PaFoua Vang Xiong I can connect you with a couple lenders I use. DM me.
