We joined BP to hone our investing skills and hang out with like minded folks-there is not another site quite like this one!

I'll just hang on to her until she stops paying rent.

That doesn't mean I hug tenants, send birthday cards or hang out with them on the weekend. 

I like the people I work with, and the office is a hub of long time experienced real estate owners, property managers, tax consultants and investors- great wealth of information.Recently licensed, and am now on the search to hang my RE license with a brokerage (no brokers in my current office to serve this need).

Make sure you go hang out with @Rob Sawyer at his meetups!

I keep hearing that aspiring investors should connect with syndicators and figure out how to provide 'value' to them.I was wondering: where can I go to meet syndicators (are they hanging out at REAI meetings?)

The market will change with the housing bubble and wholesalers will be less valuable as bank own properties "REO's" will be the low hanging fruit, per the investor buyer perspective (just like what happened in 2008).

But, once you get the hang of things, the sky's the limit from there.

I've looked into getting home-equity lines of credit and that seems pretty interesting, but not sure if it wouldn't be better to just use the 30k and get a mortgage and hang on to my equity for later usageI also looked into cash out refinancing.

Thanks for the offer, I'll hang on to your contact info.
