Every month I hold an Investors meetup in Newmarket,,, I have one tonight, you can pm me for the details. gary @ realestateventures dot com.

It really depends on whether you want to flip or hold, but either way, I would start with The Millionaire Real Estate Investor by Gary Keller.

@Gary Thao keeping with the theme of this post - I would roll over on this.

@Gary Ennis, I will have to check that out.

There is a local Real estate club that actually meets in Fayetteville; run by a buy and hold investor mentioned in Gary Keller's book. 

@Martin Scherer Getting the 2% rule properties are definitely not possible on either coast, but in a number of Midwest states, you can still buy decent properties in decent areas that will meet the 2% rule.In the area where I invest, if you feel comfortable investing in some not so good areas like Gary, you can get properties that make as high as 10% gross rental returns.

@Brandon Turner @J Martin @Gary Parker Sorry.

Gary FischerCongrats, I know the house you picked up and it is a great area.  

@Gary Miguel did you ever end up finding out how to work with a title agent to get this type of info?
