@Sean OToole    this is an interesting post Sean.  

@Dave Meyer always cover this almost every month.Below are few episodes and resources to help you narrow down your options and finally start your investing.I recommend you pick the market that aligns with you real estate investing goals, your risk appetite and personality.https://www.biggerpockets.com/resources/real-estate-101/wher...https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/best-real-estate-markets-...https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/most-affordable-housing-m...All the best and keep up posted.

My suggestion would be to select someone with the most forum posts or most reviews.

Being tied to the mortgage or deed post-divorce is a bad idea, we have personally gotten dozen of calls where things went wrong post-divorce when someone was still on the mortgage.

Also, they can penetrate neighbors' walls easier.  12 Gauges are just a lot scarier, more accurate within 10 to 20 yards- especially during times of stress, do more damage, plus less impact to neighbors.Will re-post some insurance and fire posts I already did for LA fires. 

Meetup and eventbrite seem to be the other platforms that people post them in.
