I am looking forward to connecting with the Bigger Pockets network. 

I'm eager to understand the ins and outs of finding deals, negotiating with sellers, and building a network of cash buyers.I’m here to learn, ask questions, and share my journey as I work toward my first successful wholesale deal.

Drew,It sounds like you need to make it out to some of our investor networking events here in Wichita. 

That strength i carry that lets me stand alone is beneficial but also as I left that crowd i was never able for unknown reasons to reconnect to a better class of people or even network.

Finally able to actually start executing on some thoughts — and figured I need a network of folks that love real estate investing as much as I do.

Sam,Thats some good news send me an email or reach out let's connect and Network. 

@Spencer DixonRecommend exploring as many sources as possible to get referrals AND cross-reference them to get as much accurate information as possible.Check out NARPM.com, BP’s Property Manager Finder (BiggerPockets: The Real Estate Investing Social Network), etc.Also, encourage you to learn from the mistakes of others - by reading posts here on BiggerPockets about owners not having their expectations met by their current Property Management Company.

Start small, network with other investors, and use tools like BiggerPockets calculators to analyze deals effectively.

That kind of networking plus honest cash-flow analysis can open more doors than simply chasing rumored off-market listings.Interestingly, I recently saw a property here in Phoenix (ARMLS #6757476) that sold for around $450K in October 2021, then resold in December 2024 for $1.8 million.. that’s an eye-popping $1.35 million jump in just three years.

I'm sure there must be someone in your network that is successful in this.
