Our first BP networking event! Thanks @Azeez K.! We enjoyed the fellowship and convo with other investors: @Marvin McTaw @Rick Baggenstoss @Account Closed @Tori Hansen @Simmy Ahluwalia @Matt Wood, and look forward to the next event -- hope it's on a weekend.

@Azeez K. So glad you mentioned that there will be no gurus selling and CD’s, magazines or software -- such a turnoff! I know folks want to make money, but for a newbie like me, it amounts to nothing but noise and interference.

Thanks @Azeez K.! Finally a weekend event I can attend. Just registered!

Wow! As a newbie investor, this was one scary story! What I don't understand is why it took so long for this person to be revealed. A scumbag like this, who preys on others, shouldn't have the liberty of anonymity -- everyone on BP should be forewarned. I could care less whether naming him would jeopardize his business -- that's the point! Why would anyone want to do business with him? I would really hate to see BP earn a reputation similar to Craig's List: a destination for sickos and scam artists! Another poster had a great idea: a BP wall of shame, for all the shady dudes and dudettes!

Thanks @Gino Barbaro for offering this free course on Udemy, which is a wonderful format for learning a variety of subjects. As a newbie to REI, I find that learning information in video format is much easier to digest and more interactive -- it's the new way to learn!

@Account Closed for assistance. He's a RE agent in the Philly area.

@Ali Boone what's the reason for not recommending Atlanta for investing? And, why do you like the Philly market?

QBank is great! I could kick myself for not using this as a study tool instead of CompuCram. A good portion of the questions are in the following categories:

Closing the RE Transaction - 12 questions
License Law - 14 questions
Transfer of Title - 26 questions (this is the category that I needed to do better; I missed 9)

Good Luck!

@Michael Swan still fairly new to REI and taking the time to educating myself on multifamily investing and creative financing strategies. I'm looking forward to the day I can post on BP that we've purchased our first rental property!

@Michael Swan Your story is truly amazing! You are teaching by example with what you've accomplished. No better person to receive this much success than an unsung hero: a Teacher!
