The location definitely was obvious, at least to me.I’ve hosted monthly meetups in my area of Mesa, Arizona for around 7 years now and the majority of people that attended came from BiggerPockets.

Hey,I just recently moved to Austin, TX and currently attending Champions School of Real Estate to obtain my license.

I highly recommend that you attend local REI networking groups and meetups to connect with fellow real estate investors and check out the forums, you can find discussions specific to your goals there and gain valuable insights.

I'm new to the area and have been finding meetups to attend which can be helpful.

My wife and I did a lot of research, attended live sessions, and I connected with some current and former students and got positive feedback.

Join local real estate investment groups, attend industry conferences, and seek out mentors with extensive experience in foreclosure properties.

A great way to network and meet people in your local community is to attend in person meet ups. 

I personally work in the Columbus, Oh market because my research lead to this market.Build a Local Team:Find reliable local professionals such as real estate agents, property managers, contractors, and attorneys who are familiar with the market.Network with local investors and attend real estate meetups to get referrals and build connections.Set Investment Criteria:Define your investment goals, such as cash flow, appreciation, or a balance of both.Determine your budget, financing options, and the type of properties you want to invest in (single-family homes, multi-family units, commercial properties, etc.).Financial Preparation:Secure financing or funding for your investment.

I’m not gonna go to happy hour I’m gonna save that money and attend a free online class to learn accounting.

Specific for the Atlanta Housing Authority, you have to attend the landlord/property manager training session to even accept a section 8 tenant.
