I'm connected with a group in Indianapolis that meets monthly. 

That basically meets the 1% rule.

You can also check meetup.com or search Facebook for real estate investment groups, clubs, or meetings in your area.

Does anyone have experience exchanging their small multi family property into a single family home, use it as an investment property then move into it as a primary residence after meeting the requirements?

EDUCATE YOURSELF - yes, it will take time, but will lead to a selection that better meets your expectations & avoids potentially costly surprises!

People who want to do multi-family deals of all sizes but I have yet to meet anyone who have similar ambitions all-be-it this is my first post as such.

While they don't offer tenant screening within the platform just yet, they integrate seamlessly with Apartments.com (which you already use!)

Hello everyone. I’m new here. Looking forward to learning from you all

Definitely the best place to meet like-minded investors!

I am interested in meeting mortgage brokers, investors, and real-estate agents in the Austin area, as well as anyone who can connect my abilities as an engineer to a tech company in the area.I love learning new things, and not knowing how to do a thing has never stopped me from doing it.
