I've been thinking about joining the BP community for a few weeks now.

Join me on this exciting journey!

@Ray Dixon, to learn more about short-term rentals in and around the Atlanta market, I would highly advise joining the Facebook group, Atlanta Metro Short Term Rental Alliance.

At some point in the future I'll likely join the group of agents that make a million per year. 

I joined but have a few questions and wanted to hear others exerience.

Early on (1978) I joined a couple of newly minted Real Estate Investor Association groups.  

A few tips to get started: focus on networking with local investors, attend meetups or join online forums, and consider reading books like "The Millionaire Real Estate Investor" or "Rich Dad Poor Dad."

Generally speaking, other than a fire wall and additional sound proofing, what other costs come into play w/ duplexes or mfh in regards to that joined wall?

Curious...Thinking about joining today and hitting it to see what happens.

Obviously, based on my relationship with the company, I'm not unbiased, but most people here on BiggerPockets know that I value my reputation above all, and when I agreed to join FTF as an advisor a couple years ago, it was because I was very impressed not only with their business model and underwriting guidelines, but with the CEO (Matt Rodak) and the rest of the management team.I have no requirement to invest my own money on the FTF platform; I do that simply because I like the platform, like the deals that are being funded and find the returns to be nearly as good as the private lending I do, but without all the overhead.
