Hey Stefano Vrolijk,Speak with a local mortgage broker and get pre-approved for a loan. 

Many prolific an experienced investors attend both groups.

I’m looking to network with other investors and contractors who share a passion for the local market.

I have attended a number of seminars and trainings by other gurus and have walked away from many with a bad taste in my mouth.

Go to BUILD YOUR TEAM at the top of the screen and look for local investors or meetups in your area.

You could find your local wholesaler ( basically what a land flipper is) and ask about what CRMs they are using and also talk CPAs.  

And the best way to start networking is here on BP and attending your local REIA meetings IMO.

I just joined after attending Raisefest in Louisville.  

Hi Jeanette,Have you attended any REI meetups in your area?
