If things get tricky, consulting a local attorney experienced in landlord-tenant issues can help you handle the situation properly.

Start by joining local real estate groups, narrowing your approach to strategies like house hacking or multi-family investing, and building a team of professionals like agents and lenders.

I would say that the value he brings is finding the deals, doing an initial diligence, having a local team set up for renovations/repairs/property management as well as knowledge of the neighborhood.

About me, most of my assets are RE but in another market so I would be diversifying in that market.Potential for appreciation is very uncertain: prices have risen a lot locally lately and are as high as they have ever been, and it’s unlikely higher prices would be affordable by locals.

Go to small local/regional banks NOT national ones.

Are there any local meet ups or websites on where to find more people who have a moderate level of experience meaning they are  somewhat experienced but still looking to collaborate and network with more inexperienced investors like myself.
