Utilizing meetups, you could get referrals and meet real people in your area.

Do you have any other referrals? 

Which do you think will be more competitive, buying from wholesalers or your own referrals?

Or, do they work on offering a referral fee?

I appreciate the referral.

Ask your local real estate investors association (REIA) for referrals.

I would greatly appreciate any recommendations for essential resources, such as websites, books, or forums, that have been invaluable to your own real estate investing journey.Furthermore, if you have referrals for trusted professionals in the DC metro area, such as contractors or property managers, I would be immensely grateful.If you're an experienced investor in this region and open to collaborating with an enthusiastic newcomer, I would love to connect and explore potential partnerships.Thank you for your support and advice.

**Network for Referrals**: Start by attending local meet-ups or joining Facebook groups to get referrals for good contractors.

@Berron J.Even if someone give you a referral, what meets their expectations, may not meet yours.In our experience, the #1 mistake owners make when selecting a Property Management Company (PMC) is ASSUMING instead of CONFIRMING.It's often a case of not doing enough research, as they don't know what they don't know!

Ian and I are on an investor focused team in the Worcester market and always welcome referrals.
